The mock-up was done in EQ7. The border is from Auto Borders, Single Block Patterns 1-6. There are some other borders in that section that may work too.[ATTACH=CONFIG]393805[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]393807[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]393808[/ATTACH]
Oh, I think this works! I like the first one. It frames that out of sync border and makes it make sense. Great job, KarenK!
