more than the machine will do onboard, that is. so I'm looking for a program, I guess, since I don't want to (and in truth, can't really afford to), upgrade the Creative Performance.

What are your software recommendations for programs that will allow me to resize (and adjust stitch counts accordingly) both up and down? And what kind of investment am I looking at?

I totally agree with Embrilliance! It is a great program, and Brian responds quickly if you ask questions. Plus, he is enthusiastic as well as super polite.
It has solved so many issues with embroidery for me, and it is pretty intuitive as well. If there are any updates to the programs, they will also notify you. It is an investment that you will use and be very happy with! There are a number of Craftsy classes that also use Embrilliance in their discussions, as you can see when you preview them. You can also see what they do, and how it can be used, on YouTube, (which is free)!

Plus Embriliance is available as a free trial from the website--try before you buy. ;-)
