carr52 Report post Posted June 1, 2008 I'm probably not the first one to think of this but thought I'd post it anyway. I was looking for patterens on the web and found some clip art I liked. I just zoomed the picture till it was size I wanted and then placed a peice of printer paperon the screen and lightly traced it. Worked pretty good.

I was trying to size it to fit on a coaster and it was a simple pattern. A skull. This site I found has hundreds of em. Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Caddata Report post Posted June 1, 2008 Just press the control and print screen button at the same time, open paint, paste (or Control V) the image, and manipulate the image as you like. You can mirror it, add to it, or erase part of it, and print it all using Microsoft paint or another similar program. Be sure to save it for future use.

TomSwede Report post Posted June 2, 2008 Yeah, what's that site? I tryed to trace pattern like you did but had no succes with it. Maybe it depends on what type of screen used. I use only crt screens. Just bought myself a cheap laser B/W for printing patterns and documents and I worked with Photoshop for some years so I have a good solution now, even though not the cheapest but I do need the printer for documents too so now I got rid of those expensive jet toners.
