    As luck would have it, I just brought home my 3rd 830 this afternoon. Here are a few pics. Hope you can use them.

    Thanks Candace. I'm sure I can make some new ones from your picture.

    It's taking too long, possibly due to lack of talent with the tool (Inkscape).
    I could do it but if I can get a scan or high resolution pic it'd be much less work.
    Thanks

    Anyone else have any luck with a good picture of the decals?

    Mike,

    I know this is not what you are looking for, but if you cannot get someone to get a photo which suits you, then can you cut and paste the appropriate stitches from something like this?

    I know nothing about decal making, so maybe that was a dumb-dumb suggestion.

    Good luck!!!

    I forgot! I've got to be in the office tomorrow, so if you can wait until Wednesday - I can send you very high resolution digital pictures.

    Send me your email via PM so I can send them to you - otherwise they'll be resized to something quite small.

    Oh how exciting! Thanks Cathy, I'll PM you immediately. I've already waited over a week so no problem.

    Thanks to Cathy, I made a printable version of the stitch pattern decals for the 830.

    Mike, I think you have just given us all a marvelous idea, should we ever want to get a tattoo.

    I am intrigued by this process. It would be nice to do that with other items with worn decals. Is it difficult? What program, tools, etc. does one need to do this?
