Beautiful,glad to see so much Christmas spirit. perhaps someone could add the little drummer boy even though he's not in the Bible. Always loved the song though. |

yes that would be cute but as you said it doesn't quite fit the era. |

Molly seem to be able to upload an xcf file larger then 5MB and I can't figure out why that is. I have to use "Dropbox" to add a link for the download of the xcf file. |

Yes. Attachments are limited to 5MB. You can compress the xcf with 7-Zip and cut the size by ~50%. I was able to compress the last posted Nativity Scene of 6.5MB to 3.3MB using 7-Zip. http://www.7-zip.org/ It's available to Linux users as well. For Fedora.. yum install p7zip |

It's looking lovely. Molly - your latest additions balance it all nicely. Great work everybody! Excellent work on the angels AnMal. |

molly and wallace: good work on your additions! it's really looking good now - i agree with erisian that the shepherds to the right balanced the composition nicely. but when do we get to see that lantern lit? not until christmas day? erisian: i'm glad you could see the images now - and thanks .

Thank you AnMal and Erisian, I have been talking it over and we think the lantern doesn't fit with the theme. Who ever does the next installment can remove that layer and we can come up with maybe a bonfire or a oil lantern but I don't even know if they had oil back then, that is why I put the candle inside........Any ideas? Here is one if someone wants to give it a go. Wallace, Tux, AnMal, etc.   |
