Are you sure? I dont remember the last time I "drew" an arrow mark. I hit a drop down, selected the one that I wanted and hit OK. Even if I wanted to tweak it, I double click and tweak the control points. Same for bezier curves. A

Arc was a classic example of setting VC money on fire. You build things that only a minority of people want, and then when the growth wall hits you - you stare at it, and hide into the bushes. The Browser Company, is now on its second act,
