How to: Make a big gumdrop circle

[Anders Johansen]

Hi,

I guess the subject says it all: I would like to make a large, scalable version of the "gumdrops" we all know and love from the OS X window frames.

I have fiddled about some, but fail to acchieve the right tranclucent look.

Any takers? Downloads?

I am thinking of these

Will these do? Not quite accurate as they don't exhibit the curvature of the colours you see in the real thing, but as close as I could get in OmniGraffle itself:

You can download the graffle from here (http://homepage.mac.com/jtyzack/PublicFS/FileSharing51.html) if you want it.

Those look great!

They are not for me - they are for my wife, who is doing some work on writing manuals for a small startup software company, but I am sure they will please her.

Thank you!
