New! Caron One Pound, Caron Simply Soft and Herrschners 2-Ply Afghan palettes - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
New! The Herrschner's Worsted Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
New! We've just added the palette for Deborah Norville Everyday Yarn! If you knit and/or crochet, this is for you. This is a beautiful yarn with a nice feel to it, a good alternative in worsted weight acrylic! (Thank you again to BetwixtTheStitch!)
New! The Red Heart Super Saver Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
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!

Ohhh I see what you mean now! I totally didn't notice the difference until you pointed it out! Idk why I was expecting the entire image to flip ^^; Thank you so much for your help!
Hi Terry!
I got this to work!!!! But, I didn't use your image... I read your newest note & still had the original version of the image that I redesigned (the one that was good). I reopened the file in my editing program, resaved the file but this time as a gif. I ran it through the program but still saw problems so I went back and reread a few more of your messages.
All along I have been using the "light" stray pixel cleanup & the "smooth" option to the max smoothness available, & also choose my colors.
This time, I used the gif again, chose the the pixel option=image pixel, used the basic switchboard pallet, did not designate any restrictions or my own colors, nor did I use the smoothness & stray pixel cleanup. Viola! Perfect word chart. I reran the image again only this time I chose the color & symbol chart just to verify it wasn't picking up errant colors & it isn't. The stitch counts on both the word & graph pdfs are exact.
I cannot thank you enough for all your help! I learned an awful lot through this & hopefully I can now regraph other images that were giving me issues as well...
Thank you, thank you, thanks!!!

Jan,
Welcome!
We don't currently have a plastic canvas option, but this is a planned feature on our long list of features! I'm not sure exactly when it will be available, only because we have a list of over 100 features still to come. The good news is that the more a feature is requested, we bump it up higher on the list.
If you'd like to be part of our beta test for when we get to that, please let me know!

Greg,
Welcome!
That's
wonderful how you learned to crochet from your youngest daughter -
how kind of her to teach you. And kudos for making granny square
blankets! They're so versatile and can be fantastic for scrap
projects or just plain mindless crochet, when you want to let your
mind wander (or watch TV, lol), while keeping your hands
busy.
It's so fascinating how seeing the
granny square diagram helped you! My thought is that perhaps your
brain deals better with crochet diagrams rather than written
patterns. And if you ever want to branch out beyond the granny,
there are granny square variations (unfortunately, not all
designers chart them) to keep you busy. There's a sunburst, a
hexagon (still using the granny stitch) and there are solid
"grannies" (some of those aren't really grannies anymore, but
they're still called grannies, lol, no idea why).
And if you prefer conventional grannies to variations,
there's always the option for continuing to make granny square
blankets, which no doubt will be treasured by your family members
and friends for years! 
DMoss,
Welcome!
I understand
what you're talking about, because yes, the white background
symbols are a pain when you obviously don't want to stitch them!
I'm sorry to say at this point, no, there isn't a way of removing
them.
