[misc.forsale.computers] New at atari.archive ===>Stitchmeister Demo

billm@CSUFresno.EDU (Bill Mills) (12/01/90)

I have just sent Stitchmeister Demo to atari.archive.  
Stitchmeister is color program for creating patterns for
counted-crosstitch out of 16 color neochrome images.  This allows the
happy stichmeister user to digitize photos of things like family members
roses, etc. in color or 16 grey levels (which tends to work best), and
then print them out as a pattern for counted cross-stitch.  (those
little stitched homesweet home, etc. signs that look so homey)  
This allows for interesting photorealistic decorations.  
Stitchmeister demo has a few shortfalls, such as no error traps, and I
think a couple of other bugs.  Stitchmeister Demo may be distributed
freely, so long as it is not put to commercial use.

Be seeing you...

And they say there's no software for the ST.

Talking about a niche market.  Or is that a 'stitch' market?

Will Atari go after this lucrative market now?  Will they start 
advertising in 'Stitching Today' magazine?  I can see the Stacy ads 
now!

Will Atari be present at the National Stitching Convention?
Damn, look what Elie missed!

Get out those knitting needles, Uncle Jack!  

Hey R&D, how about a Sewing Machine Digital Interface?  You'll have 
all the true ST enthusiasts making their own clothes!

Geez, I'm glad there's no fee for using the demo!


(I'm truly sorry if I offended anyone.  I couldn't resist the attempt 
at humor. :^)

	My wife would be very interested in this. Is the demo for a purchasable
or shareware program, or is the demo all there is?

	Also, I don't have access to atari.archive. Can you suggest another
source where I might be able to get this?
