Welcome to Stitchboard! Feel free to sit and stay awhile. Check out our new Premier features. In addition to the ability to create larger patterns (up to 500 stitches wide), illusion knitting and private labeling (no more worries about editing those pesky and messy PDFs), we've just introduced Filet Crochet, our most popular request! We have many more features planned, too!

You're so welcome! I understand. Larger stitches take less time and the HDC is very sturdy, yet much more compact than, say, a double crochet!
Wow ... these are absolutely gorgeous!!!! Thank you for sharing these. Pretty awesome!

Secoya,
You're so right, art is
beautiful and special...and as I always say, who's to say what's
wrong? There are people who have discovered amazing techniques that
never would have been discovered...had they not been completely
wrong! LOL, it's a different way to think outside the box, right?
I'm sorry
your brother doesn't enjoy knitting or crochet. Maybe he needs to
find something else that he really, really likes? I know there are
crafts that completely turn me off...and there's nothing wrong with
them, I am just not talented in those areas and don't enjoy them.
It would be no less than torture to me to go back to them instead
of the things I love.
I would say to
encourage him to try other things. Had I not been, well, sort of
bullied about my cross stitch by that mean woman who turned my work
over, I might not have found beadweaving...ack! 
Your brother
might enjoy sewing more...or
lacemaking...beadweaving...spinning...needlepoint...thankfully, the
list is endless! 
Welcome! 
No worries, you
haven't missed anything...we don't have C2C available yet. I'm
sorry to say I still don't have a time frame for when it will be
available.
Donna,
Welcome!
As you've
noticed, something as large as a logo is difficult to work with
when you're going that small. The best suggestion I can give is to
make sure you have your original image in a pixel-to-stitch/bead
ratio (meaning if you want 20 beads across, you should have 20
pixels in your image). This, of course, won't be possible with a
lot of images, as you'll lose most or all of the detail when trying
to make the images so small. 
Then when you
have the image as small as you want it in beads, in #6 in the
freePatternWizard you'd set the number of stitches/beads in this
way: I wish to enter my desired count -
Number of stitches desired: XX (where XX is the number
of beads across that you desire, rather than the default of
80).
The other thing is that the
freePatternWizard for now will set the height for you. We made it
that way originally so people wouldn't skew or truncate their
patterns. A future version will allow you to designate the height,
but for now the freePatternWizard will do that
automatically.
My guess is the NFL images
are too detailed to go that small, but I'm not very familiar with
them and don't know if that's true.
Hope
that helps!

This is my latest project, this block is the Green Lantern
emblem.
Of course this one is Wonder Woman.
I have 2 more blocks to go for this piece, Flash and Green Arrow. I'm working it in tunisian knit with Caron One Pound acrylic yarn.
