meflick Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 (edited) Here is what the files look like with their names on his CD/DVD that I purchased and why I thought it was Word Art8. The first one is the .jpg image, the second one is the files its self and then what it shows inside the pattern file. I have sent Steve an email with a link to this thread, with these screen captures from the CD, and explaining we are trying to find it for several people looking for it but we wanted them to go to his site to find it and not share the pattern here. Hopefully he will be able to do so soon. I know he has been sick and very busy right now trying to get ornament patterns and the other items out.

You just have to find the one that you want. EXCEPT you can buy his CD/DVD With all his past years items on it. His CD from last year had all his patterns for 10 years, 2007-2017. It cost $20 and had over 2,000 patterns on it probably when you take into account that many have multiple patterns in them. So that is about a penny per pattern for those 10 years. He usually updates it after the first of the year I think to add that past year's to it. I did buy the CD last year thinking that would give me 10 years of his patterns. Then today, I remembered I had it so I thought I would check it and see if I could find the pattern on it, figuring if I did, I could figure out when he posted it on the blog and find it there and then post a link to it from here to there. Good idea - and I did find the pattern on the CD and discovered it was from 2007 - his first year of putting out patterns. BUT other then saying 2007, it does not say what month or anything on it. So, I thought well, I would look through the 2007 posts and find it that way. Unfortunately, I looked and may have missed it BUT I did not find it anywhere in any of his posts from 2007. Not so easy it would seem. I can tell you it is listed on the DVD as "wordart8" and has the "No Coffee No Workee" and "God is Awesome" patterns together. However, a search for "wordart8" on his blog and the online pattern catalog did not turn that up either. EDITED again : I didn't Find IT in his online catalog or on the blog though .(though I did but I didn't so ignore what I say next! Didn't delete so as to not cause more confusion with followup comments. @octoolguy Ray and @Rockytime Les, if you go here to his online pattern catalog: https://www.stevedgood.com/catalog/index.php and enter either "word art" (space between word and art or specifically - "More Word Art-8" (no quotes) it will show up in the pattern catalog for you to download. (I still don't find it on his blog posts though. ) I too purchased his pattern disk last year. I forgot all about it. I'll have to dig through and see if I can find it. Thanks. meflick 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think hubby came home with dinner about that time and I didn't verify that it was correct. My bad. I promise to try and do better.

A pot of real coffee in the morning and then decaf the rest of the day. I can't imagine a day without coffee. We are "addicts".

meflick Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 Ok, I got an email back from Steve Good and he noted for some reason, the pattern is missing from the online catalog which he will fix when he gets a chance. In the interim, he shared where it can be found on his blog posts and shared a direct link to it there. I will share it here, and maybe @kmmcrafts Kevin can add it to the original post in this thread so it is easier for those looking to find it in the future. @Rockytime Les - wasn't sure if you had ever found a copy or not. @octoolguy Ray did you ever track down your CD with the pattern? If not, may be easier to print from here: https://scrollsawworkshop.blogspot.com/2008/11/another-book-of-word-art-patterns.html OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockytime Posted December 14, 2018 Report Share Posted December 14, 2018 Thank you Melanie! I downloaded from your address. There were actually eight patterns there so I grabbed them all. meflick and OCtoolguy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don in brooklin on Posted December 15, 2018 Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 The thing about this forum is I am always getting inspiration to learn more Inkscape. When I saw this post my first thought was to recreate the pattern but I did not know how to "warp" the text. After watching a few youtube videos it is actually quite easy. The video that made it clear was https://youtu.be/ldbdhVWaT20 You have to down load an extension called Bezier Envelope Extension and I also downloaded his svg for the the warp shapes. Follow the links After a little experimenting I create a pretty good replica of the pattern. I am quite sure I am going to use this technique in the future.

kmmcrafts Posted December 15, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2018 I need to watch that video when things slow own for me.. I really want to know how to do this. and also want to know how to fill an area with text.. like the animal puzzles Iggy cuts.. I'd like to be able to take a silhouette and put text into that like those puzzles.. Many many things I could make if I was able to do that.. Some day... I hope...
