    You maybe correct in your view. Maybe there should be a section to show Affinity Apps in collaboration with third party apps to demonstrate how Affinity can fit into a larger creative framework. A sort of Affinity in the wider world thread. However, the rules for such a thread would have to be set out clearly for boundaries sake. 🤔 Thanks for the opinion. @NotMyFaulto

    But not if you purchased your programs directly from Serif.

    I would like an option in Windows and Mac for an Affinity Software Manager utility that could update all the required and installed Affinity programs to the latest version. This could work in the background while online and ensure that the latest updates are available on the user's machine when needed for installation.

    Another mosaic-style painting which I have created using DAP and Affinity Photo. Based on a photo on Pixabay. The video was rendered in DAP using time-lapse and edited in VideoProc AI. Title "If a Picture Paints a Thousand Words Then Many Letters Speak Volumes." Man of Letters.mp4

    If you have the G'MIC extension plugin for Affinity Photo there is an automatic watermark script you can utilize which is included in the tool set. @MikeMcE Not many font choices though. Maybe someone should write a macro for Affinity Photo which does something similar. An example of mine is included.

    @Return For goodness sake, don't tell her that, she will be in bits.

    This is an SVG of the painting optimized in Affinity Designer. Mosaic.svg

    Wow, That is an excellent photo-realistic vector drawing! @VectorVonDoom

    I have been experimenting with the mosaic style of painting, which takes a long time, but the results were interesting. Based on a photo from Pixabay. The painting was produced using DAP 8 and edited and developed in Affinity Photo. I'm not sure what to call it ... maybe La Femme.

    And a kid's book illustration ...

    One final image inspired by the Knight vs Dragon vector art, included with DrawPlus X8, this time in acrylics. Further developed in Affinity Photo. Video included and final image. An SVG of the vector art transferred from DrawPlus to Affinity Designer, then recoded as an SVG for export also included. You might want to play with the vector yourself.

    Has anyone tried to use a tool such as Process Explorer or an equivalent to monitor what is going on with the processes and monitor the data usage and speed of tasks. This is probably only useful on a PC. I don't know if the Mac has similar software.

    Wormwood in chalk based upon a Drawplus vector image. Finished off in Affinity Photo. Chalk it up to Prophecy_2.mp4

    Here is a pastel rendition based on the vector artwork created by Ken Cope and featured in the DrawPlus X8 distribution. Never Forget Painted in DAP and tweaked and developed in Affinity Photo version 2. Never forget.mp4

    You mean Deneba Canvas. I had a version (6?) with a cover disc on a PC magazine. It also did DTP as well as Vectors which made it quite unique as a package. It supported very good text handling, even better than Serif's PagePlus at the time. Having said that it was a magazine cover disk which got me to try PagePlus out and I became a Serif User using their Legacy range. Now I am with Affinity and the next step forward. Let's hope that the Canva deal allows the software suite to progress and develop into a viable alternative to the Adobe monopoly and still offers a non-subscription pathway for user who would like to own their copy of the software and use it in perpetuity.

    @AlfredThe challenge is not accepted, but ... Cloudy Night Another DrawPlus X8 image in the style of the golden age of painting. Cloudy Night.mp4

    Here is a portrait painting of the Dalmatian picture which came with DrawPlus in vector format. I used a combination of DAP 8 and Affinity Photo to generate the painting. Human-guided brush strokes with computer-generated brushes. The video should show you how I guided the brush strokes to maximize the result. I think it works very well. I finished modifying the image in the develop persona to tweak its intensity. Dalmatian.mp4
  20. Archangel
    Yes, it was very good indeed.

    @Alfred I was a wee child when Vision On was on Television and followed Take Hart afterwards. I even remember Tony Hart's dialogue from the introduction of the Learn to Draw CD-ROM. "I'm no computer wizard but I know a good product when I see one." I wish I'd used that CD-ROM properly to learn vector techniques. Maybe Serif/Canva an do a version for Affinity Designer.

    One final image was created in DAP 8 and edited in Affinity Photo. Northern Lights in the style of Benson. Does anyone remember Vision On and Take Hart? I hope the video brings back memories. Not to mention Serif's Learn to Draw CD-ROM. Artwork.mp4
  23. Archangel
    No, it wasn't 4k. I don't know what wen wrong with the first upload.
  24. Archangel
    Thanks. The first video didn't work for some reason and was deleted. I don't know how to get rid of the broken link.
  25. Archangel
    Yes to this and I would love a barcode generator to be added to Affinity Designer. Important for book covers.
