Re: [VFB] RE: fly pattern database/scrap book
Now I basically create a new word file for each. It is not as organized as it could be but by keeping it narrowed to flies I use or want to use and by category - emergers for example. I find them quickly. If it grows, I will simply create new folders and move the files for the folders into it. Simple and easy. I like it now because I can add any number of photos, show peoples variations and write any notes such as where I used it and how it worked on the file.

Re: [VFB] RE: fly pattern database/scrap book
Wayne asked: "When using word to create a pattern description, do you follow a basic template or do you create a new word file with text and photos inserted as necessary?" No, I just open a blank document and 'free-wheel' it. I just make sure the heading is what I want for my file folder title. When I'm done, I do a 'save as' and then browse to the sub-folder I want the file in, and it's there. Example- my 'houseflies' folder has a bunch of finished fly photos (sub-files), 1st batch, second batch, etc., and then a Word doc. file that has a ton of 'beautiful' housefly photos pulled from all over the net, to use as models for tying. On some photos, i show the url where I got it, if I think I would want to go back there. In Word, I can resize the photos brought in and make observatins and suggestions about how and what to use for parts of the fly. If I drew fly designs, I can also add the scanned drawing to either the folder or the Word file.

Using the Explore program, create folders and sub-folders based on catagories that you define. Each sub-folder is files in that catagory. And under those are sub-files for that catagory and so on. I have files as far as 6 steps deep, but they are still easy to find. The trick is to be disciplined when you file and make sure you name everything descriptively. That makes retreival simple. Sample: My photos- All Flies All Fishing Flies Saltwater flies Inshore patterns Shrimp pattrns Kinky-fiber patterns Swap-flies- shrimp swap 2009 This is just a sample, and each folder and subfolders can number as many catagories as you want.

Re: [VFB] RE: fly pattern database/scrap book
Basically yes, but this is something that is tweaked to my needs: undocumented even if mysql, not really multi user safe sometimes poor error handling, what the heck, I'm checking with the log files, but nothing for the average user etc. And I have not really time for support... I run it on linux, it needs a glassfish or tomcat server. I would suggest to use flysource. It has even more options than my program. But runs only on windows, and that;s the reason why I started my program. If someone is willing to go a hard road, I'm willing to share.

Copy & paste work, you can also save web pages, both as a file & as a favorite link in your browser. Real player also has software that will let you save video to your computer, there's quite a few good vids on many websites including YouTube.

Mike, I also have hundreds of sketches and drawings of fly designs, also step-by-steps in a huge binder that I have to scan and file. Not even looking forward to that chore.

Re: [VFB] RE: fly pattern database/scrap book
Wayne, It depends on what format you are going to store your files in. Using the Explore program, create folders and sub-folders based on catagories that you define. Each sub-folder is files in that catagory. And under those are sub-files for that catagory and so on. I have files as far as 6 steps deep, but they are still easy to find. The trick is to be disciplined when you file and make sure you name everything descriptively. That makes retreival simple. Sample: My photos- All Flies All Fishing Flies Saltwater flies Inshore patterns Shrimp pattrns Kinky-fiber patterns Swap-flies- shrimp swap 2009 This is just a sample, and each folder and subfolders can number as many catagories as you want. I have about 300 catagories between Fantasy Flies, Fishing Flies, Web-site files, DVD files, etc. I have over 5000 photographs stored.

Hi All; I recently acquired a Pansonic toughbook CF-18 computer and plan on using it for hobby stuff, primarily fly tying/fishing. Anyone store patterns on their computer? If so, how do you do it and what software do you use? One idea I have is creating a pattern book for events I visit, such as Sow Bug. My wife recently made a cookbook of my daughter's college soccer team tailgate recipies and had it published as a spiral cook book. It worked really well and was well recieved by others.
