New Tutorials for CorelDRAW and Corel Photo Paint.
I thought it was time some tutorials was written around the subject about how to use these applications and some of their powerful tools. If anything is not clear, or you want to know how this or that task is accomplished, let me know, and maybe we will end up with a new tutorial! Writing tutorials for CorelDRAW is a big challenge, and this will be my contribution to an application that i love and live with every single day.
Here we go, and "Good Luck to You"!
CorelDRAW..
You and I will start out with a few very simple exercises, where you will be familiar with some basic tools. These tutorials are written for version X3 and X4 of CorelDRAW, but apply to versions as far back as 7, or even version 5. There is something here for beginners as well as more experienced CorelDRAW users. All tutorials will open in a new window!
KALEIDOSCOPE PATTERNS! This one is stolen from Xaraxone.com-
But with the permissin from the author Stephen Robinson, thank you Steve, I spent some time to translate the steps for DRAW but it's realy simple and traight forward. In 10 steps and less than two minutes you have an exiting pattern like a Kaleidoscope or quilt pattern, and it's realy fun. |

PIPE LIKE A PRO..! NO, this is not about Snowboarding.
If you know how to draw some realistic pipes and knee bends, then this is not for you, I've had a lot of thinking to do to figure out a way to do this, so, I did the thinking for you, now you can draw some pipes for me. |

THAT MIRROR REFLECTION!
A quick and easy way to add some depths and 3D feeling to your flat graphics. This one is a request from a number of readers. |
 |
LET THERE BE STARS!
Basic use of the tools Transformation, Shaping and finally the Blend Tool, and you will end up with a really decorative star or two. |
 |
NEON CITY LIGHT!
This one is about outlines, and outlines only, it will give you an idea on how the Pen Tool acts, and you will have yourself a nice and realistic neon sign.
ANOTHER GLASS BUTTON!
This one is about Transparency, it will give you some new ideas on this "see-through" tool, and you will have yourself a brand new glass button.

Or, use the normal left-click, if you want it to open within your browser.
