Product Description

Glass Eye 2000 Standard Edition is the software that gives stained glass artists a simple way to create, adapt, and print custom patterns using their computers. Start with any of the 400 patterns in its library or design a pattern from scratch with a collection of easy to learn, easy to use drawing tools. Glass Eye 2000 has been called "the industry standard in stained glass design software" by both Spectrum Glass and Glass Patterns Quarterly. Compact disc runs on Windows 98 and all later versions, including Windows 8, 10 and 11, as well as Macs with Boot Camp, Parallels or VMware Fusion. The software occupies 64MB hard drive space.
Please note opened software can not be returned.

Features:

  • Draw Patterns and Add Glass Colors
    Use the drawing tools to create patterns, then apply realistic glass colors and textures.
  • Resize to Any Dimensions
    Scale your pattern to the size you need
  • Number the Pieces
    Instantly numbers even complex designs
  • Import Images from a Scanner or Digital Camera
    Use your favorite photos and more to design a pattern. Import images and trace to create pattern lines for a one-of-a-kind pattern.
  • Print Full-Size Patterns
    Print from your printer! If a design doesn't fit on a single sheet, it automatically "tiles" the image to several sheets you can then assemble into a full-size pattern.

    Getting Started is Easy! Software Includes:
  • Extensive help system (for an example see computer screen image below)
  • In-depth tutorial
  • Introductory Video
  • Free technical support for 30 days

    Plus:
  • Includes a calculator that shows materials usage, and a handy cost estimator that takes the guesswork out of pricing your design. For an example see the computer screen image below.
  • Experiment with different glass colors and textures in your design to visualize your creation before cutting a single piece. Glass Eye 2000 can number all your pieces instantly. For example see the numbered Hummingbird pattern below.
  • Includes 400 patterns, 77 from CKE. For an example see the Poppies pattern below.
  • Design with bevels. Includes bevel library with 72 stock bevels and 89 Mika bevel clusters. For an example see the bevel pattern below.

  •   Versatile, valuable tool
By on
Pros : Feature-rich, accurate, scalable, great glass library, excellent printer driver, nice lamp wizard... lots of good menus and features. It is CAD -customized for glass design work.
Cons : Users unfamiliar with a little basic CAD can be initially frustrated.
Other Thoughts : Even if all you are making are crosses and red-green tree ornaments, this product can make you a better glass artist. It is the go-to tool for glass design. Classical stained glass, fused glass, even lamps. I have ported the SW through several operating systems and computers, and found the support to be appropriate. The company's level of piracy protection is warranted. It is valuable.

When and how did you get started in stained glass? Ive been interested in stained glass for as long as I can remember. As a child, I would sit in churches and watch the (often) biblical depictions come to life when a stray ray of sunlight cast its illumination our way. Sun shadows dancing. I dabbled in many media over the years, trying to find an outlet for some of the visions careening inside, but none of them took. Drawing, painting - even watercolours - no amount of professional training could guide my hand in a satisfactory way. But then there was the glass. I lived abroad for a few years, and wound my way through Europe on my way back to the States when I finished my Peace Corps Service. My last international destination was Paris, where one of my closest friends lives as an organist. Two beautiful autumn

4 Ways to Stop Procrastinating Today
Apr 30, 2010
Chances are, right now, in reading this blog post, youre avoiding an overdue task. I too was avoiding a laundry list of work-related tasks in writing this. Procrastination is a part of life, and its certainly always been a part of mine. As a teenager, my parents would accuse me of putting off everything from piano practice to math homework. Id vehemently deny their charges hissing back, I work better under pressure. The truth was, I often felt overwhelmed, under-productive and anxious. Over the years, Ive been able to combat my avoidance issues using 4 tools. The trick is constantly reminding myself of these actions, because they do not come naturally to me. 1. Just Say No. I say yes to everything. Need someone to head up that event? Sure. Want me to design 12 posters for the Car Wash? No problem. Take your kid to daycare? Of course.
