That horse but inside a circle or “wreath”. She’s going to hang it on her door so she wanted something that was kinda cut out in places but not separate pieces.
This but with the other horse.
Thanks for the help!
If you look at @beerfaced example…the red line around the horse flows into the red line of the circle. That means it will cut away that white area. Plus the horse is ‘separate’ and you can ask the Glowforge to ‘engrave’ that one. Once it’s engraved, then it cuts out the white part and you will have exactly what you need.
I think @beerfaced even made his file so you can download it…bring that one right into the GF, engrave and cut it…

Reading this thread it sounds like you would like someone to do the files for you… did I get that right?
This Etsy link will take you to a page that has lots of SVG horse files.
There are some incredible files.
There are many links here to help you.

Go to ETSY.com and search for Glowforge files.
They are instant downloads. I’ve order a dozen or so, and most are from a few dollars to $10 or so.

@rvogt Thank you for explaining that to me. I looked at it and saw a horse inside a circle. By the way, I finally figured out why I was only getting a half circle in Inkscape instead of the entire circle! Yay me!
@beerfaced Thank you so much for taking the time to make something that I completely had no idea what it actually did. You guys astound me at your intelligence! I just now figured out my circle Inkscape problem.
@awebs76 Yes! That is exactly what I wanted to know. What is the best, safest and most secure place to legally purchase custom files. I have purchased several things in the past but I need someone to make something special for me.
@JimmyWayneWestie Thank you so much for all the helpful links. When I have time, I am going to take all the suggestions I was given and read through them.
@Docsis I have purchased files from Etsy in the past but needed something custom made. Thank you so much for your suggestion!
Again, thank each and every one of you for taking the time to suggest places to look and do my own research along with those of you actually creating images!

I highly recommend this company. I have used them in the past when I was building my website.
This is a place where graphic artists are available for very affordable prices. And they are from all over the world.
