I have and use coyote on a regular basis, depending on the picture and skill level with the grapics it is possible to get a very good pattern on some pictures with the adjustments in the program and little or no hand work with the eraser or pen tools. they are not all that easy but after practicing I have been able to go back and make great portraits from early failures, there are great tutorials on u-tube and practice really helps. If anyone is contemplating a trip to the midwest scrollsaw trade show in Wisconsin next week I will be giving an introductory seminar on coyote and they have given me coupons for attendees for a discount on the program.
