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.

I think that's a wonderful idea Sandy. It might start out empty but if
it's not too difficult to post patterns, it would get populated pretty
quickly. Once there was a decent core of patterns, I'm guessing it would
snowball.
