I am looking to buy software for doing rhinestones and im not sure what to get i have had a look at funtime and the plug in for corel draw but not sure what to go for.

I see the plug in for corel has alot of good features that funtime doesnt do but i dont know if i would use them but when you buy the plug in its $49 and can only be used on 1 computer so if i change computer which i am planning to do later in the year i will loose the plug in and have to buy it again.

I have seen the corel plug in has a stone counter that will work out how much stones you use in the design so that would make things easier to price cant see if funtime does that?

To start with it will be mainly text i will be doing till i get the hang of things.

I just want to know what everyone thoughts are on the 2 packages and if theres any pros and cons.

thanks

I use funtime and it can only be used on one computer aswell.

I find it really easy to use, though I've not came across a stone count, that's not to say it's not there.

Not tried the corel plug in, so can't comment on that

I have never heard of funtime so i put funtime into google to see what i could find. My wife no longer allows me to use google!!!!!!!

I use the r-stones plug in, the support you get from MacroMonster is second to none. Yes you can only use it on 1 computer, but at approx £30 and free updates I don't think it's to bad a deal. It's a very easy to use piece of software, and does a good job.

Does the r-stones plug in do a stone count for you?

Thanks for the replies i think i will go for the r-stones plug in for the corel draw as it does seem more advanced than funtime from what i have read online.

Kaz from the youtube video i have seen it does a stone count and you can also put in the price you pay per stone and it calculates the total price for the design which could be handy if you are doing big designs using differnt sized stone etc

Yes, and costing. And, the latest version does colour seperations too!!

I did have a chuckle as well, but the thread was several days old by then so I didn't post back. Nice one Brett!

must be my warped mind
