Since upgrading my mother to OS X and loosing the use of one of her favorite programs, I have been looking for a program that did Brush Mirrors.

Symmetrical Designer is a nice program as far as it goes. But some not so sophisticated users may want to take their creation and embelish it. A way to do this is not obvious.

Try this: 1. Make the design. 2. Set the Page Setup to 75%. 3. Print it to a PDF. 4 Open the PDF in Preview. 5. Do a Save As to BMP or other format by choosing the Pop Up in the Save As dialog box. 6 Launch a paint program, Apple Works, Canvas, Photo Shop, whatever. and open the document using the Open command. 7. Add color using the fill tool, edit superfulous lines etc.

Have fun.

My mother has created some eye catching designs. Hope this helps others think out of the box this budding developer has created while working toward furture enhancements. Good Start!
