This is a chance for stitcher to find out, from those that have these programs, how good/bad they are and maybe get an idea of which ones have the best features. Please if you have a program give the others out there a fair assessment of how it works. How easy it is to get started, If the tutorials are good/bad. And if you do need customer support how you found their help, good/bad? Thanks in advance for your time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I started with the PC Stitch 6 and I was very happy with the operation of the program it was easy to learn and the tutorials were very helpful. The more I experimented the better it got. I then upgraded to the PC Pro. I found this a good program but I missed some of the options in the 6 version. Pro is a good program but the disc I got had a flaw and so I would lose my work some times even after I had saved it. Very frustrating to say the least. I contacted them and the CS person was friendly and we spent probably 1 1/2 hours trying different stuff to see if it was me or the program. It was the program and they said they would send out a new disc. 2 month later I had no new disc. I had been stitch so no problem but then I needed to make a pattern. Well called back and with apologies I was told a new one would be rushed to me. Sure enough with in 4 days I had the new disc so I don't know what happened but they did what they said just had to poke them to get it done. A couple other times I called for technical support and the wait was long and frustrating so that is a down side. But the program for the most part is easy to use and the tutorials are easy to follow. The new options are good but I find some times I wish they had left the old version ways intact. Over all I would call the Pro good for those that already know what they want to do but not a beginners program. Good idea Rose -- we've given comments scattered around the forum, but it'll be useful to have them in one place. I use Jane Greenoff's Cross Stitch Pattern Creator 2, and I like the fact that it's got quite flexible backstitch, will do blackwork fill patterns, knows about squashed stitches (or vertical and horizontal half stitch, as I think Heritage Stitchcraft calls them) and you can create and your own speciality stitches. Also, you can create your own fabric colours for showing a 'virtual stitched piece' on. It also has a floodfill feature to quickly fill blocks of colour, and an auto-outline feature which is useful for adding outlining backstitch -- you can choose between outlines only or between colours as well. It will convert photographs to whatever size you wish, and you can limit the number of colours, which is good. The finished result tends to be a bit dark, though, so it's a good idea to brighten up the photograph beforehand. I would like it to be able to do variegated threads, but then I don't know whether there is any program which does those. My version also doesn't have the latest DMC colours, the ones before 200, but that may be because I got mine of eBay and it isn't the most recent version. What I don't like about it is that its 'undo' is erratic in the extreme, sometimes you want to get rid of your last few stitches and suddenly you've lost half your pattern, and also it's very hard to delete/undo french knots and beads. It's not difficult to learn to use, which is a plus, and on the whole is perfectly adequate if you learn to live with the rotten Undo feature -- I use the eraser instead, but I can imagine that might be a bit of a pain if you like to design larger charts. Hi All I have currently started to use the PC Stitch program, which i used for the first time to do a pattern for my Mother In Law. It is a great program and i got through the tutorials and tried a number of different colour ranges before deciding on the final one. I will upload the picture once i have finished the piece. I guess my only complaint is that if you use the maximum number of colours (200) what the program doesn't tell you is that there are lots of single stitches and so it gets rather frustrating But the program has worked so far! I have been using the PC Stitch program for a couple of years, but it was just last year that I really took off with it.
