I have to tell you Ken, without your wonderful videos explaining the silhouette , it would have been packed up and sent back already! I was so confused on a couple of silly things, but you explained it as if you were standing here with me! Thank you, thank you, thank you! It truly is a great machine once you learn the ins and outs.

@KensKreations 8 лет назад

+Rosemary Smith it sure is!

@marbask6088 10 лет назад

I can't begin to express how happy I am to have located your RU-vid and blog....I have learned so much and cut my frustration level down quite a bit, thanks to you. Just wanted to tell you how much I appreciate all you do to help the rest of us!!! Thanks!!

Ken, I am a quilter that loves the look of applique quilting but hate to trace, cut, sew the appliques. I got my Cameo and am watching your videos to Pixscan the applique paper patterns and then have the Silhouette cut the fabric. There is a HUGE audience for this if you can show how to make it happen. You could even do a Craftsy video! Lisa Shaw shows to use Heat-n-Bond Stretch Light on RU-vid behind the fabric to make it cut applique pieces perfectly. Can you make a video on how to do that? I'd sign up for this Craftsy class in a second!

Great tutorial! I've had my Silhouette for over a year and use it ALL the time. I usually use print and cut but I ordered some printables on Etsy and are passworded to I can't print and cut with registration marks. So I have a pix mat but have NEVER used it so this sounds AWESOME!

@RHG412 9 лет назад

I JUST got my Silhouette for Christmas so am a big-time newbie, but when I saw a couple little things on this PixScan technology I knew I had to try it. I found my mat on eBay for $10.00+free shipping-so it was a small investment for such HUGE possibilities. Then when I found you (Ken) and all your GREAT instructional videos I was SO pleased! Awesome job of making this technology less scary! I am looking forward to watching all of your Silhouette vids! Thanks for sharing your experiences, knowledge and opinions. You rock!

I have been watching a number of your reviews and use of machines that can print and cut and now this. Was not sure what machine I wanted to get. You have me on the Cameo starter pkg and Pixscsan mat. Also getting the markers to go with it while I am at it. Thanks for the time and effort you put into keeping us up to date with the newest toys. It is much appreciated. Oh and you saved me a bundle as I was planning to get a much pricier machine. Really not necessary for what I need since I found your videos. Thanks again

@paulalawson5801 9 лет назад

Hi Ken Thank you so much for your tutorials. Everything I have watch have been very helpful. I had one major frustration with the pixScan no where did it ever say make sure your silhouette on the screen was on load cutting mat! I had the worst problem with this very slight oversight. I know I should have checked it but ya well didn't think about it and my registration always failed because of it. Now I may be the only one out there that had a complete stupid moment but just in case to all that can't get the registration to complete try this very simple common sense fix. I hope this helps someone. Paula

@kimharbaugh 4 года назад

I think I did everything you did, I have the cameo 4, I upgraded from the one, but I can’t get the registration marks to work. I will say, it’s easy to import the stamped images and then do a trace and cut on blank paper and then stamp the cut out image, but I hope someday to be able to figure out the registration process just so I can say I did it. 😊. Even though this is an old video, it’s the most helpful I’ve seen for this process, thank you!

@firebatethan 9 лет назад

thank you for your amazing videos, this is helping a lot since I only need one cutter and you saved me a lot of money and trouble testing all this machines. This PixScan is nice but I don't like the fact it doesn't cut right on the edge and I don't feel the camera capture is accurate enough for my project. Brother's Scanncut looks better for me.

I am new to Silhouette Portrait, and just learning. This video is great, but I am having one problem, probably not for anyone but me! I use the eraser or other tools, and then after using the tool, how do you get rid of it? It just sticks around, I have clicked again, double click, or all sorts of clicks, cannot remove it! Thanks

@Cre8zhavoc 9 лет назад

Thanks for doing this! Wasn't sure about spending the cash on the Brother machine or whether the pix scan would work with my Cameo (or if it only worked on the new Cameo). The video was great! Exactly what I was looking for & getting the mat is now a no brainier. One note: can't recall where I saw it but it said certain phones (including the iPhone 5s) didn't need to be calibrated... Have you heard that? Thanks again & loving your videos!

@KensKreations 9 лет назад

Hey Ken now all you have to do is convince Silhouette to make a heavy duty blade and folks that have bought recently their cameo's will have another option to use. Good video and what will they come up with next. when are you doing the second part of the Scan and Cut... pat

@KensKreations 10 лет назад

Pat Posk I agree their blades are no good and I use third party for this reason!

Hi Ken , i recently bought a cameo and i want to learn how to make stencils. Would you please show how to make stencil with something like dog's head ,also show the stencil with the negative and the positive please. another thing i like to know is show the functions of icons on top and the bottom ,please Thank you so much

It's your icon's at the bottom of your computer screen....they sit on a silver tray and look 3D...and by the way I'm waiting on the arrival of my silhouette cameo with pixscan

@Pastrychef5122 9 лет назад

Another great video, I watched it over an over and followed step by step on my computer while watching on my iPad. Everything seemed to go smoothly, made my first cut which was just a tad bit off (is that normal to not be exact?), and then the second time it was totally off, about 1/4" down, although it did cut the shape. I didn't do anything different the second time, and the cut looked fine on screen. Any suggestions? Thanks so much for your detailed videos!

@Pastrychef5122 9 лет назад

Pastrychef5122 Also, I was test cutting on copy paper with a simple coloring page my grandkids did and it was cutting into the mat. (I used Sil's copy paper cut settings). How would you adjust? Blade? thickness? or both ? Blade was at 2. / 10. /15

@Pastrychef5122 9 лет назад

Pastrychef5122 Apparently I should have read UNDER your video before attempting using Picscan. I just saw my phone on the list and that I didn't have to calibrate? LOL! AHH! Would the fact that I went through all the steps have messed something up? I have an iPhone 4s

@kathiebee11 9 лет назад

Love the video, I have an iPhone 4s and the Cameo recognized my upload. didn't cut exact (but neither does my print and cut, but my question is on taking the picture. I have the picture on my phone and usually I email it to myself, then with my email program, save it where I want it, but it always asked how big a file I want to send. For normal pictures I do the smallest file, this time I did the actual size, but was wondering if that was the right way to do it.

@KensKreations 9 лет назад

@dublintoo 10 лет назад

Great video on the PixScan! I have had my Silhouette Cameo for a little over a year and a half and I'm sorry to say I don't use it as much as I would like so I play catch up to learn all the cool things it can do! I'm really liking this new option and I have a lot of stamps that I'd like to import and cut. One question though. Is there a way to cut out the areas that you don't need?? I mean like the centers of letters like the center of the P's and the "a" and he "e" etc??? Keep up the great work!

@KensKreations 10 лет назад

dublintoo yes....Just think of anything you can normally do with the trace feature you can do with the picscan.

@MrDiyosa0107 9 лет назад

Hi... I am so excited with this pixscan feature of the Silhouette. I am currently waiting for my mat to arrive. SO while waiting, I have updated my software. The latest now is the V3.33.277. I am encountering problems in opening the updated on. I mean "initialising" took so long. There is also an error message prompting all the time. Do you encounter this error also? I need help... I am not so good at this... =(

@donnapayne9526 9 лет назад

I got my ipad calibrated, however I have not been able to take a photo the Silhouette will accept due to aspect ratio not being the same. I have not done anything different while taking the pictures. Any suggestions?

@beckye9413 9 лет назад

Motorola. Droid turbo. I finally got it to cut. Not as accurate as yours, but I'll try on other things to cut.

@FunkyLittleWhiteGirl 8 лет назад

Your videos are wonderful. Question... the reason I would be getting the Cameo is to cut out my own designs. Do you have any advice? I'm thinking that if it has a hard time recognizing stamps... would that be even harder for free-hand sketches? Have you tried? I'd love to know your thoughts on this before I go and spend a boatload of money. :)

@KensKreations 8 лет назад

The pics can allows anything that you can take a photo of

@totallynotabot151 9 лет назад

I think that cropping the calibration photo in an image editor is a bad idea. The Silhouette software tries to analyze how the dots are warped in the entire photo frame. If you train it with a cropped image and then use an uncropped image for cutting, the two won't line up perfectly. Instead just get in close with your camera so there is no border around the calibration image..

@ducatinyc 8 лет назад

Great vids! Is it possible for a Cameo to cut in such a way that all the pieces are still on the cardstock and that you could mail someone the whole sheet and they could pop them out themselves? Perhaps there is a way to leave tiny tabs connecting cut out pieces to the rest of the sheet? I'm thinking cardstock as the material.

@KensKreations 8 лет назад

+Ducati NYC Vlog you could you would have to cut little tabs into them but yet

@dianaluvgod 9 лет назад

I know this has nothing to do with your video, but I also know that you get the best out of your machine(s) and since you mentioned calibration you refreshed my memory. With that said, I have a question. Prior to silhouette upgrading their software, we were able to click on file and they had the calibrate option; that is no longer available. The reason I bring this up is because my silhouette is not cutting correctly when using the print and cut. Do you think you can help me with this. Thanks and I love your videos. Keep'em coming!

Hi. Great Video. Do I have to import the calibration every time? Pam

I found that by putting an overhead lamp to shine directly down on your mat solves many problems.

What the heck is meant by registration marks? I don't understand that. Great video, btw. I'm going to learn a lot from you! Thanks so much!

@KensKreations 9 лет назад

debkauz The registration makes tell the cutter where to cut. The cameo scans the registration marks.

@debkauz 9 лет назад

Kens Kreations So the short mark on the left that's on the machine is the registration mark? Or the squares on the mat are the registration marks, right? And thanks! Your video was great and I can't wait to watch more that you do.

i keep getting an error saying the photo i imported doesn't contain EXIF DATA.. What do i need to do to fix this?

Ken, I am not a beginner with the cameo, but I just don't understand the pix scan, can't you do the same thing with just the cameo instead of using the pix scan? Need to understand this added addition to the cameo. Thanks

+Vicki Branham the pix scan is really only for stamps

@hanbui7233 8 лет назад

+Kens Kreations what do you mean that the pixscan is only for stamps? I'm new to this and not sure I get what stamp is? Also, if i have some sample paint color cards would I be able to use the Cameo itself if I want to cut the card? Or is this what the pixscan is for? Thanks!

@paparks41 10 лет назад

hello, I have a question for you? How clear are the picture that you are up loading and then cutting turning out? I know sometime when I do a google search not all of the pic have good resolution and they print out not very clear. does it depend on what pixel you have your camera set ?

@KensKreations 10 лет назад

P. Parks so far very clear. It all comes down to the threshold. The pix scan is not printing the image so it really does not matter image quality.....if you can get a good trace on the item that is what matters

@paparks41 10 лет назад

Great thank you very much

I got all my calibration done successfully. But I am have a few issues. All my cuts are off. And now my regular print and cut is off as well. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

@KensKreations 9 лет назад

lisa hartnett you need to do both calibrations

I had so much trouble with the registration failed. I went to Silhouette Support and this is what I got. Thought it might be helpful to others. Issue Description The PixScan™ mat registration marks cannot be read properly. The process of reading the marks on the mat fails. Cause The PixScan™ mat is not loaded in the correct alignment. Resolution Re-align the mat with the left edge of the mat touching the loading guide mark, but not covering it. The edge of the mat must be just to the right of the mark (rather than covering the mark or loaded slightly too far to the left).

Did you take your photo with the orig iPhone camera?

@dublintoo 10 лет назад

Thank you for your quick reply. I'm also having trouble with tracing an image with double lines. When I trace an image, sometimes i end up with double lines then I'm not sure what to do or how to fix. Do you have a video that helps with that?

@KensKreations 10 лет назад

dublintoo I am going to do a video on this as it seems to be a very requested problem. Look for that in the next few days
