I am getting hooked on this forum, it's like gaining extra friends. hehe. Right back to business. Am I just dumb or what? I downloaded the image that Paul and Justin put on here re: DSF and opened with coral 5 pressed my cut plot and all I get is the square outline. This was the problem I had when I converted a picture myself. Hope that makes sense. I think I have tried every button in coral, trying not to appear to blonde but I would love to make myself a shirt for the show.

What am I not doing?

P.S. If I get a dustin for my Birthday, I'm leaving home :biggrin:

If you have downloaded the jpg you'll need to trace it but have a look at the other file you should just be able to cut that one from your rocket launcher.

I just copied and pasted the logo from on here and printed it on a normal printer, that was before J & P had posted the logos.

By the way, for Christmas i got this silver stuff you put behind your radiators to reflect the heat back into the room:rolleyes: Oh and as i was searching for a new quilt/sleeping bag for the show season he bought me this bizarre sleeping bag suit...yep a sleeping bag suit. Apparently all the rage at festivals, you walk around, dance etc in them and just plonk yourself down in this waterproof bag for the night. Very odd.
