    Wow! Thanks for point that out Gigi. I'll check it out.

    I went to Graphicriver and I see some stitching that I like, but all the items that I'm finding are actions. (I think that's what they were called. I know they are recorded scripts that you run in Photoshop.) Will the actions work?

    I'm not sure why I'm not finding brushes. I have entered that word into my search on the site along with Photoshop.

    Thanks to everyone for your responses.

    If you're looking for stitch brushes, there are a lot of vendors at Renderosity who sell them at reasonable prices. My fall back is Simple Stitches by Atrenais http://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/simple-stitches/101410 which is a nice combination of brushes and PNG files that covers most basic options.

    In Photoshop yes.  In other graphic programs, maybe not.  There are some add-on plug ins for things like Gimp that will let you use some PSP actions, but it's really a roll of the dice.

    Guess I'm not searching for the right thing because I'm not finding the tutorials or the stitch kits. I searched for various forms of stitch(ing). I searched for sveva and "Stitching Made Easy". But the only thing I'm finding is Stitch Witch. I have Stitch Witch, but I have lost the textures that came with it.

    I bought Stitch Witch when it was originally sold over at PhilC. I checked with Phil to see if I could re-download it. Not the program. Just the textures. But he said he didn't have the authority to do that. I do have some other textures sets that I bough from Daz that have similar textures.

    You could check ShareCG for textures to use with Stitch Witch.

    I do it in zbrush personally. That way I can put down color and displacement map at the same time.

    A quick off-topic side question while KevinH is waiting for stiching suggestions...

    GIMP, Blender and Audacity are very clean and very safe...if downloaded from the official sites.

     Mjc1016, do you know the official site for Audacity?

    Either audacityteam.org or the sourceforge page are safe Sean,  although it seems the audacityteam page has a slightly newer version (2.11 versus 2.10). Could be that sourceforge simply hasn;t updated the link?

    Both Rendo and DAZ's internal search systems have become worse with each site's last "upgrade."  When I'm looking for something these days I just go to Google and type "DAZ" or "Renderosity" and the kind of item that I'm looking for, and it's almost always more effective.

    Thanks. I misunderstood. I was searching in the wrong store. I found them by accident by searching in goole. I have the tutorial and the stitch brushes now.  Thanks again.

  • Kev914Kev914 Posts: 1,129

    I downloaded Blender, GIMP and Audacity from their respective sites and all seems good. I notice that when Blender starts it opens a black window that has some text in it. But it goes away before I can read it. I'm hoping that it does the same for you???

    Yea, it's some legacy thing they don't hide from the start.  It's fine.  It's like DOS but I think it's like UNIX or something...

    ..yeah, it seems the more "advanced" site software becomes, the less it really works for the user.

    "it's some legacy thing they don't hide"

    Blender uses Python, Wolf. The "black window" that you see briefly when you start Blender is just Python starting up. Perfectly normal.

    Ah, thank you!  Now I know!  Python!  Sssssssssssssssssssss cheeky
