Choosing and Optimizing Pictures for the ExpressDesign Assistant

If you wish to modify a picture before using it in the ExpressDesign Assistant, you will need to use a picture editor such as mySewnet™ Draw & Paint or Preview. Adjust your picture, save it with a new name, then use the new picture in the ExpressDesign Assistant.

Note: It is recommended to keep your original picture in case you wish to adjust it again with different options.
