I don't think that DB Zoobies is going to cut very well, but I know that DB Animal Occasions cuts great

Here are a couple of t-shirts I made with cuts from DB Animal Occasions

I saw that one and thought it might be better.
Thanks for sharing your shirts, they are gorgeous... how did you do them?

Cut the design in freezer paper and used it as a stencil on the shirts. (If you aren't familiar, freezer paper comes in rolls at the grocery store cheap and is shiny on one side. That side will temporarily stick to fabric when ironed so it makes for a great one time use stencil.) Once the stencil was stuck down, including the interior pieces (penguin belly, dinosaur spots, eyes) applied fabric paint with foam roller/brush.

the yahoo "scalhints" is still there. Lots of people on it but one thing I found to be greatly disappointing is, there are people on there posting .scut and .svg files as their own, but people on this forum have created them - no credit being given to the folks over here though! Guess they're just taking them from here and uploading them there! I know that putting creations on here are for sharing with others but posting someone else's creations on other web sites (or blogs for that matter) and not giving credit to the creator is just plain mean - some people just don't have any morals, IMO!
I won't be going back to that site. This one is so much better!

I just downloaded and installed this font without any problems. All I did was click on the link, unzip the file in the downloads folder, and then drag the entire unzipped part into fontbook. I'm not sure if that is THE way to install fonts on a mac, but it is the easiest way i have found. Let me know if i can help!

Hey Kim,
That's really weird. Did you try deleting and reinstalling? Did you unzip the folder? I'm sure you did, those are just the things I can think of off the top of my head. I am on a school trip this weekend with very sucky internet access, but let me do some hunting when i get home.
Sorry it took me so long to reply!
