FREE Digitizing

Over 300 views, still not one project.

Over 400 views, still not one project. Someone did PM me but has never sent the art, so not sure as that was over a week ago.

That is ok, gave me time to work on some pieces for a garden party fundraiser I held last weekend.

this sounds totally personal and exactly what I would love to help with! Are you thinking head shots or full bodied? what size(s)? I will upload three types of embroidery to try to find out what you are hoping to expect. We can do two of the three I am thinking , but not the third. (but that one is really computerized and anyone with a Pulse or Wilcom should be able to knock that out easily)

here is a type of embroidery that is hand digitized, meaning we manually put in each section, not Photostitch or Auto Punch. would this be something similar to what you are thinking?

this is a type of embroidery that we cannot achieve here due to our software... it can use as many colors as possible and has a VERY realistic look, but it also has about 50,000 stitches per 3X5 inch area and MANY MANY color changes... but if it is a "one off" then it would be ok I would think... anyone with Wilcom and I think Pulse can do this type of stitch automatically (as in 2 minutes) for you. just remember the run time will be long and the color changes can be astronomical... 88 for this design!

this is a 1 color type of Photostitch that we can do... it is great for a sepia tone type look, old photo type. this is my third type I am thinking of... and again, this is all 1 color, and a lot of stitches, but since it is software generated it takes all of 2 minutes. just depends on what look you are going for? hope these help?

Well, over 200 views and only ONE person has contacted me and it was a design they were having problems with but it wasn't their fault, the client just wanted too too much from them... their work was great, but they did not have the tools to teach.

My hypothesis, as stated in other threads throughout the years, is that there is a difference between a digitizer/embroiderer who is just in it for a "job" and those that have some sort of passion and love for what they do.

Which type do you want to work with?

Ok, over 500 views and 3 bites.... but no followups... seriously? ego issues here if I cannot GIVE stuff away... sad as I own the largest digitizing house in the US! yikes... so they will PAY for my work but no one will take FREE? Oh well... don't look a gift horse in the mouth I guess. lol.

Personally after 20 years without a logo my guess is you probably DON'T NEED ONE! seriously. You have a good thing going, don't overthink it.

I understand it though... for most it is just a "job"... not a passion. that is fine. They work for a living and I feel I haven't worked a day in decades! It is still FUN for me.

for your software I can see probably only New-To-The Industry people giving you a shot... I have been using my software since the beginning of software for digitizing...(Digitrac before that) so I realistically cannot see me changing... old dog new trick thing.... and if I Were to change it would be to Wilcom. My fear is the slowdown in volume of work produced per day and Quality of work necessary to maintain our client base precludes me from switching.

over 750... nothing yet... other than someone who thinks Picasso's work is something other than it is. google? youtube?
