This is mostly a comment to those of you following this thread that do not have a background in graphic design. There are two things that I think you should know, First Corel Draw is vector graphics program, not a bitmap program like the Gimp. What this means is that Corel Draw is for designing graphics from the ground up (Take a look at any flashy product box, most boxed software for example, that graphic was probably drawn with either Corel Draw or Abobe Illustrator). The Second important thing I think you should know is about the whole Adobe Illustrator vs. Corel Draw thing, this is the Vi vs. Emacs debate of the graphics world, they are both good products, but different.
It is well known in marketing that the general public can only count to three, a great example is Microsoft renaming Windows 4.0 to Windows 93, hm I mean 94, nope, sorry for the delay make that Windows 95.
