New! Caron One Pound, Caron Simply Soft and Herrschners 2-Ply Afghan palettes - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
New! The Herrschner's Worsted Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
New! We've just added the palette for Deborah Norville Everyday Yarn! If you knit and/or crochet, this is for you. This is a beautiful yarn with a nice feel to it, a good alternative in worsted weight acrylic! (Thank you again to BetwixtTheStitch!)
New! The Red Heart Super Saver Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
Welcome to Stitchboard! Feel free to sit and stay awhile. Check out our new Premier features. In addition to the ability to create larger patterns (up to 500 stitches wide), illusion knitting and private labeling (no more worries about editing those pesky and messy PDFs), we've just introduced Filet Crochet, our most popular request! We have many more features planned, too!

Zinopower,
There's an answer to the technical part of your message here:
https://stitchboard.com/community/2.0/message.php?t=1473&c=2&b=195&ns=1;&nsm=&hs=0
The other issues notwithstanding, the place to select your colors in the freePatternWizard is 5b, where you can choose the radio button to the left of "I will choose my colors (select to see the colors)."
Really like the logo!
Yes, I often used to tell people not to worry about trying to do it left handed, just do it your way, and I'll convert it.
Usually, that worked just fine. I guess we leftys are just used to it because we've always had to do it. I don't know.
Yes, technology has progressed a ton. While there are a lot of videos specifically for left-handed users, I usually don't even watch those. I still watch the right-handed ones. Strange that.
The best way to accomplish what you're attempting to do is to add borders to your original image in a graphics program; this will require a bit of experimenting to ultimately arrive at the size you're intending. At this time the freePatternWizard doesn't have the capability to add borders in the program itself, and while this is a feature it likely will have at a later date, rather than waiting, adding borders on the top and/or bottom before sending your image through the freePatternWizard is the most optimal way to accomplish this.
I love crocheting mini items, from dolls clothes to doilies for Barbie Dolls. Thank you for the tip, I will be using it all the time :-)

RedLady (LOVE your name!),
Welcome!
My
apologies...I'm not sure what you're asking...are you saying you
have a PDF with a perler bead pattern and you want to use the grid
to turn it into a crochet pattern?
I'm sorry
to say the freePatternWizard will only work with images, not with a
premade grid. I'm not sure if it could be accomplished, since the
program doesn't understand how to "read" a grid. It would confuse
any gridlines for pattern elements and would really mess up the
image you're trying to create.
Is there some
other way to get an actual image of what you're trying to create?
For example, let's say it's a picture of a rose. Could you instead
find an image of a rose that looks similar to what the perler bead
pattern looks like?
