Default Fly pattern software

I agree with you and have thought about that already. I wrote the
program in Java and I will be making it available to Mac and Linux
users too in the near future. With an application I am able to provide
more powerful features than I could with a website and that's my goal.

Hi everyone, I've created a free fly pattern program called FlySource


I don't mean to complain: free is hard to beat.
But I run linux and Mac, and I didn't buy the window
emulator for Mac. So it ain't no f*&$)@g good for me.

What I think the fly tying world needs is a web
application, not a windows executable--sort of
like FlyBook.com, where anybody could search and view,
but only registered members could publish.

I got started on one about a year ago, and then
bogged down trying to figure out how to populate it.
Mabye I should just put it online and see if anyone
uses it.......even though it would start out almost empty.
