Sorry for my inglees, I'm Italian.
I have a picture of my baby, is it possible to turn it into black and white or blue and white? where the features and hair are blue or black and all-white face?

Your English is fine (just the spelling of "English") - I appreciate the attempt to use English.

You could possibly do it by making your own color palette and only using grays as well as black/white or blues for blue/white but that may not work real well. For any given company, there are only so many shades of the colors needed. Even by reducing the number of colors to be used, it is not unusual to see yellow or pink where you expect a gray. That's where "tweaking" or manual adjustment of the pattern is needed.

You might get closer if you had the picture converted to black/white using a graphics package (I think Irfanview can do it) and then importing that into PCStitch.

Again -- keep the number of colors fairly small to keep too many extraneous colors involved and be prepared for lots of tweaking. Even the most simple image can take hours to change and adjust colors to get what you want and remove confetti stitches!

Good Luck,

Diane

Thanks for your answer,
I have done thousands of settings with different software and have not obtained the desired result of getting the features in black or blue and all face in white .. but I'll do what you suggest, thanks !! !
