They just aren't designed for all of that thread. I have done a 180,000 stitch design on a jacketback but it is a different material. I have never used 1.5 oz. tear-away on t-shirts. 2.0 oz. or 2.2 oz. cut-away would be better for t-shirts. As far as digitizing goes, it takes a lot of practice and I wouldn't attempt anything over 20,000 stitches until you have mastered small designs. I wasn't able to see AL picture either, maybe use www.tinypic.com (http://www.tinypic.com) and paste the link here =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
