not as clean as the last one but its somewhat of a present for my freinds who walk the path to hang in their Boschetto, their grove. I was saving it for Soween but thought I'd go ahead and present it. Sorry I couldnt do better. Maybe a later version, after I've learned more.
Good work Urian. hmm. Wonder why the edges did that. Anyway, this is still far beyond my abilities, and I'm in awe.
An interesting side note. To this day, despite my new enlightened view of other religions and symbols, this image sparks my early programming. Evil is the first thing that comes to mind, then ignorance.......... then I realise the ignorance is mine. Had the early church decided to adapt this symbol, like the trinity, rather than condemn it, I would have warm thoughts rather than fear.

Thanks, OldRaven. The edges did that because, in my final run(when I was cutting the design from its layer to put on the new background) the points on the bottom kept being cut off. After a while I kind of gave up and did it as is.
INterestingly, the christians did use the pentacle as a symbol for quite some time. It was also associated with sir Gawain of the round table. The most pious and god fearing memebr of the Knights
