affinity photo Merry Christmas to All

jmwellborn · December 17, 2023

With a major assist from a black and white drawing of Ancient Windsor Castle in the British Library's collection of images in the public domain (watercolour brushes), plus a Jixipix plugin, plus some Pixabay images of snow, a bow, and some spruce (selection brush tool), I wish each and every person at Serif — who has/have been so indefatigable at giving us our lovely V.3 this year — a blessed and happy Christmas! A more elegant group of professionals could not be found!

My thanks and best wishes also go to the many Forum members who have so kindly devoted so much of their time and intellect over the past years to answering thousands of "how do I ..." questions from other Forum members. Not to mention my own. I have learned from those answers more than I ever imagined when first I found Affinity Photo, and later Designer and Publisher a few years ago.

A special thanks goes to @MikeTO for his extraordinary gift to us all of his Publisher manual. It is a Herculean effort and so very appreciated, I am sure, by many of us.

So thank you, everybody, and may we all pray for peace on Earth in 2024!

P.S. The bow in my jpg is actually a clear red. Not sure why the uploaded version is this rather off-putting burnt sienna. The spruce looks rather sick and tired too. Oh, well. Not Photo's fault.
