Awesome, thanks so much for all the work in saving that thread!

Thank you to everyone who made all this happen.

I can't seem to get the pdf to download for "Changing Colors in a Print and Cut". Can someone else try it and see if it works for them? I really want to learn how to do this.

Thanks SO much 61redhead!!!!

Thank you so much for doing this! I know it was a lot of work.

Thanks so much for all that worked on getting this setup!!

I tried backing up my silouette files today but could not find the file that was recommended, so I went on a live chat with Silouette and she told me to open each file in the program then save it to my desktop. All the files I have already used are saved in my documents, so I saved that file, now I just have to save the ones I have not used. It will be time consuming but at the same time, a reminder of the files I have. I have my files i. Folders in the library, so I am making a file for each so it will be easier to find if I need to. Btw, I also downloaded the upgrade for Silhouette so I can use the pix scan.

I finally got the courage to pull my cameo out of the box looking forward to using this as a resource, thanks!

loco coco - it's hard to say if the file is print and cut or not, without seeing the file.

Some designers go a head and fill in each element of a design, but it is not necessarily done for printing purposes.

If the cut lines are for each part of the design - it is probably a cut file. If the cut lines are only around the shape as a whole - it is probably print and cut.

I print on cardstock all the time and have no trouble with it feeding through my printer. I even print on paper bags, burlap, and other fabrics!

I do have a top load printer now, and it does seem to handle the heavier materials better than a bottom load printer - but cardstock was never an issue with any of my printers.

I don't know if anyone will see this because there hasn't been a post since 2016! LOL

I have 2 questions - recently I was changing laptops and a computer savvy friend loaded all my programs, files etc onto a thumb drive. Then from there we loaded everything onto the laptop. When I opened my Silhouette program it had been updated, which is great BUT I had all my images in categories and all those categories are now gone. So I have spent a few hours re-categorizing them. However, while doing that I realized that a lot of my images seem to be missing. I know that I can't find several images I used for cards. How do I get them back?

Also at one point, someone somewhere had made a file where the grid on the screen was numbered just like the mat. You could download the file and then click on it to transfer it to your screen when you started a new project. So helpful. Does any one know what I'm talking about and can help me find it again?
