Welcome to Wishblade Venting! If you are shopping for a cutter, then check out the cutter comparison documents under our Files section at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/WishbladeVenting/files/ If you need tutorials for the Craft Robo/Wishblade, Illustrator or Inkscape, feel free to grab them from my server: http://www.ilovecraftrobo.com/ Also Note: (1) You may ask any cutter-related questions at any time at this group. These questions can relate to any kind of cutter (including a Sizzix machine, for all I care). It can relate to where to buy cutters, people's experiences, how to operate, how to use other programs and even font management. I don't have silly restrictive rules about what's allowed to be asked and what's not allowed. Just ask your question and it will be happily addressed even if it's a question that came up just yesterday, before you became a member! (2) You may freely mention any other Yahoo group or web site that might help another member. I often list suggestions here and I certainly don't feel threatened with other group names being posted. Good heavens... it's all about helping YOU, the member, get what you need! (3) You may freely recommend or "un-recommend" retailers. Just please be honest about your experience and relate the facts of what happened if you had a bad experience. (4) Opinions on the various cutters, both positive and negative, are always welcomed. (5) Retailers are welcome to advertise what they sell and any special deals that are available. Retailers: to keep your own reputation positive, I recommend not bombarding the board with ads, but certainly let us know when a price changes or when you feel it's a good time to remind everyone of your web site and what you sell. I have run this group since last October with these basic "non-rules" and it's worked just great. No members have been put on moderated status and the only members banned have been spammers of non-cutter-related products (you know... the posts that make us blush! lol) Thank you all for being terrific members and never causing me to doubt my philosophy for how a Yahoo group should operate.
