Travis Posted May 20, 2009 Report Share Posted May 20, 2009 Hi Bob. Welcome to the Village. You'll have a great time here. Lots of friendly and talented folks here. You'll get a kick out of it. BTW...you're never too old to learn new stuff. GIMP and Photoshop may seem intimidating at first, but once you see that you're only using a few tools to create scroll saw patterns, it's actually pretty easy. Be sure to follow along in our GIMP online class. Many of the techniques can be applied to Photoshop too. Chris (messman) has put together a video tutorial here, and I have another series of Photoshop tutorials here too. If you're interested in Inkscape to create patterns, we have tutorial on those too! So many wonderful things to learn. Jump in and have some fun. We look forward to seeing what you come up with! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
