My silhoutte cameo just arrived the other day and I was so excited, but now I am frustrated with it. I wanted to trace and cut my image out from my stash but try as I might all day could not get it to work. Message says can not detect registration marks. I followed the tutorial in SG newsletter dated March 8th but it is not working for me. If anyone can shed some light on this I would greatly appreciate it. I have PSE 10 and am on pc running windows 7.

I was going to recommend that tutorial Carole....so, first question, when you printed the images, are you certain you printed the registration marks?

Yes they were on the paper. I just don't know what I am doing wrong.

Hmmm....did you select "detect registration marks automatically"?

Oh I think I figured out what I did wrong. I read the newsletter again and I forgot to select the file type. I will try that tomorrow and see if that works. Thanks for your help. I really do appreciate it. I figured it was something I was doing wrong.

One thing I did wrong the first time I tried to print and cut...I put the paper on the mat wrong. It was a symmetrical object and I didn't even think about which way the paper had to go. I hope you get it figured out. The Silhouette is very addictive once you get it going!!
