Circle Frames?

[tmcewan259]

Looking at another post on the board -

www.trade-routes.com

I noticed that they use a circle around a logo and then lines from the circle for a nice corner effect. (Upper left hand corner). How is this created. I understand how to place the logo, but how was the circle frame(?) and lines in each direction created.

Thanks in advance

Hi Tmcewan259,

On the site you mention it looks like the logo (including the circle and lines) is a single image that has been imported into Antenna.

You could go the same route and create a suitable image in an art package and import it, or you could create a similar effect entirely in Antenna using the built in Gradient Lab utility to create both the circle (set the Gradient Lab shape option to 'Ellipse') and lines. These could then be placed on a page and a suitable logo image overlaid.

If you've not used Antenna's Gradient Lab before take a look at the Gradient Panels tutorial over in the Antenna Tutorials forum for a quick example.

Cheers,
