Once you click on the link above, permitted members may download, simply have your password ready and click on the format type of the design(s) found beyond this point.

Below you will find a sampling of what we offer. But first some important details......
Please note that the designs we post for your viewing are simple GIF images. They are shrunk and often distorted in order to fit in the allowable space. The CADD designs are, of course, full size and proportional.
Please also note that we direct our conversation at CADD operators in the stone trades - most
notably the memorial and garden memorial decorative trade. All designs are copyrighted either by us or the original artists. Contributions to the archive are protected by US Copyright Laws, thus contribution also affords intellectual and material protection. Only active members are permitted to employ the designs under restrictions mentioned throughout our site. Members who contribute are warned never to upload copyrighted material unless the contributor is the copyright holder and understands that other active members - and only ACTIVE members - will reproduce and/or alter their work in the limited production of their remembrance of a life. We remove any and all work once notified of property rights infringed upon or if we suspect copy infringement. This does not mean that we do not archive such material. The Ruritian emblem is not permitted to be displayed to the general public, yet to draw the emblem so it may be cut in stone or bronze requires an interpretation of the original design to vectorization. We do harbor such work for those who require it, but you must request it and it must be for a member of the society who has passed away. Usually the society or organization will have already given you approval to use the emblem.

Lamb: The Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world - the Agnes Dei. "Behold, the Lamb of God." (John 1:36) The Passover Lamb commemorated the Jews deliverance from Egypt; their salvation was assured by the blood of a lamb painted on their doorways. (Ex. 1:1-13). So the salvation of all men is made possible through the blood shed in the sacrifice of Christ, the new Paschal Lamb, on the Cross. '...the lamb who was slain...'(Rev. 5:12) The earthy image of Jesus carrying a lamb represents the Good Shepherd caring for his fold.

And now the fine print... Nothing is for sale or ever was. You are not buying designs, rather your monthly fee pays for the band width required to operate this bulletin board service. All designs redrawn or created by us are ready to plot and cut as they are. Scaling the images on your end might enlarge, shrink or distort the "V" lines beyond usability - depends how much scaling you do. We set most "V" lines at .1098 inch. Most figures are designed for an area of 12"x12". Most full stone designs are designed for 20"x 12" surface area. Contributed art will vary and we hold no promise of its quality - but 99% of it is as good or better than ours! Because most of the designs are vector interpretations of copy protected logos, emblems and the like you can not sell any design. You may not distribute our drawings. You may not store them on CD or other transportable media. To employ any design or resource from this site said resource must be pasted, cut, embossed, pressed, painted, affixed in any manner to a medium. Said medium being the focus of the production, educational presentation, display or structure and not the resource. You may employ it in sales and cut the design into a memorial for display or for a grave site while you are an active member at MyDrawingBoard. You may employ any design for advertising purposes so long as we are recognized as the source of the design. You are permitted to alter any design in any fashion and then employ it as your own creation, as long as said alteration is 40% or more of the design. No designs are for sale at any time. We suggest you tell whomever it is that wants to buy the design to get a computer and join MyDrawingBoard! Posted designs are copyrighted property. As such you may employ them only while you are an active member at MyDrawingBoard. Misuse, illegal presentation or resale is punishable by law and we protect the rights of the artists and our members to the fullest extent of the law. Take this very seriously, please. We offer a $10,000 reward for information which leads to the apprehension and conviction of anyone who missuses our drawing files. We do affect a search warrant which will lead to the immediate confiscation of all your computers and all computers on any network you are attached to so authorities may search all drives for any stolen files. An additional $10,000 per drawing after the first drawing (therefore $20,000 for 2, $30,000 for 3, etc) will be paid upon compensation from the convicted.
