Hi Susan & KGroce,
Did you have any luck with this? I'm so disappointed, I missed all the press about the SCAL lawsuit and just bought a cricut with hopes of creating my own original designs. I didn't find out until now that SCAL is no longer available. I would be very greatful to anyone that can help me figure out how to create my own images to send to my cricut. Thank you all for your help!

I know what you mean Liz. I am in the same boat with a recently purchased Cricut Cake machine. I did all the research on the software programs and then by the time I found a great deal on the machine Provo Craft had blocked them all. I too would really appreciate any help finding a functioning copy of SCAL, Make the Cut or Fairy Cut that still works with Cricut. If anyone would rather advise me privately here's my e-mail address:

I wish I could figure all this out...I have the trial version of SCAL 2 that I really really need someone to teach me or tell me how to "fix" it so I can use it...(the trial expired)...HELP I don't know where to turn. You can find SCAL on PirateBay but it's version one the main difference is you can't make and cut your own designs with version one you can only cut fonts and a few basic shapes...I need version TWO

I found with a little research that you can make the cricut still compatible with MTC product. I am still looking for SCAL solution but I am happy that this works. Do a search for the PCCPlugin.dll file, download it and place it in the plugin folder of MTC product. It works. I tried it first on the trial version to make sure it works and now I will be purchasing my license. It sucks that Cricut could not find a happy middle ground so that all their customers could be happy with their product. I had intended on purchasing my favorite cartridges from time to time, because I am not rich. But now they will not get anymore of my money for being so greedy.

Try searching for a torrent of Make The Cut version 2 demo (its still available with a little searching). I believe that Version 1 did not use plugin files but version 2 did. Version 3 uses plugins but does not include the ppcplugin.dll file.
Install the version 2 software and then copy the ppcplugin.dll plugin file to another location.
Upgrade to Make The Cut version 3 and copy the ppcplugin.dll file to the plugins folder.
Let me know how you make out.

Where is the xml file? Design studio? gypsy? Is there a software to decode this file or will a simple windows program do the job?
I have a Gypsy and wish to use all the design cartridges that have been dowloaded via an upgrade but it tells me that I DO NOT have ownership. Thankyou for any help

There is a guy (J Ragon) on Ebay he's auctioning the PCCPlugin.dll file for 4.99. I got mine yesterday for $8.24. The turn around time is amazing. I paid for mine at about 2pm and received the download by 5pm. I have yet to try it out though. I plan on doing it tonight. Once I'm done I will post again. It says to download free trial first of MTC... it will put lines in your work though. I'm guessing the PCCPlugin.dll file will make sure the lines arent there. The file comes with instructions and the actual download. Wish me luck. As I am wishing the same for you all.

also, have just ordered a plug-in that allows you to use your cricket to cut ANY image your heart desires (attached Webpage file). haven't received mine yet, but did check reviews & out of the 182 of them, all but one gave 5 star rating. i'm guessing it works
