When you scan your fabric the scanner scans it at about 1700 pixels or such. You need to change the size. I downloaded Irfanview for free some time ago. Just google or search for Irfanview and download. Go to the library and click on the fabric in your file not on the EQ and right click on the file - open it with Irfanview. Crop a section of your picture so it is less than 200 pixels. You should be able to see the size of your crop if youlook at the top of the screen. It should show something like (106x134pixels) in the line at the top of your screen. Make it what you want. You may need to play with differant size crops to get the look you want. You won't know how it will look on your worktable til you experiment a little but it isn't hard. Save it in your file and then go back and import it into your EQ library.

I do this all the time. You might be able to do the same thing with something like paint or a photo program but I think Irfanview is so easy to use.

Hope this helps. Have any trouble just ask.
