Hi Paul,
I would create different templates for the various colours and then you have to heat press them individually. Ive seen some videos on you tube with different colours.
Tell me, which rhinestone program are you using Paul?
Cheers

Hi Paul,
I looked at Funtime a while ago. Is it easy to use? its so cheap compared to other programs. I saw this>
http://www.digitalartsolutions.com/soft ... cutpro.php
They want crazy money for that program and funtime is $49!
Do you get the same results? also, what do you use for stencils? ive been told to use a Laser engraving material which is about 2mm deep and ive also read that you can use Flock vinyl as well because its also deep and much cheaper.
any help is good Paul
Cheers mate
Dave

Yes. It has. After you simulaylating design it will tell you how many stones will be used. But make sure u 100% sure about this software as licence is only single computer use. So i you decide to upgrade computer or restore to day u bought it u wont instal it again. Licence wont work.

I never try corel plug in but if i knew about his plug in before i would go for it. I realy like funtme bt lcence is iseles i you format your pc or buy jew one. Also it looks bot amateurish.
Edit: just read that rstone has this same crap licence. No worth a penny imo. I think if you pay for something you should be able to keep it....

yep, thats my problem.....kinda p'd off with both of em because of the stupid license issues.....
I also believe if you pay for any software - its YOURS....to do what ya want with it, so to speak !
any other software you or anyone else can recommend ?
ps....
i am in the process of building a new PC just for my printing work anyway - just to keep work related things away from the ususl crap we do/see on the net.....but if the HDD's on the new pc bugger up, for any reason, i have lost the licence...thats just plain stupid...AND GREED, from the companys involved !
