Yes. Yesyesyesyes. My beading program is here, it is cool, and it is fun.
The "minimum" requirements are. It sucks on that level of memory. Fortunately, this machine has a whole lot more. It purrs on this machine, once its memory-to-use is increased. It does cool things on this machine.
It does things I would be scared to try beading for fear my arms would fall off and I'd accumulate 20 bazillion unused beads (because I only need a few of each color) on this machine....
*beams* I love this program.
Of course, I really don't love the export process quite so much. It only deals with PICT format files. No problem, there's an image program on the machine that can convert from that to JPG. All fine, yes?
Well, sorta. So far, the "export at 16 inches on a side" attempt, translated into JPG, is the same dismal 3-4 inches on a side that the "export at 8 inches" was.
I think I need to find something and kick it....
But other than that it is good!
10:08 - Yay! Exporting as a PNG results in similar issues, except the resulting file resizes nicely once I have it on my PC. Much better quality.
I think that's enough experimentation for one evening.
