Ok.. I am a big dummy who didn't do my research. I purchased a Silhouette got it in and didn't know why I was thinking it would take svg files. Installed it today and much to my surprise after I have downloaded tons of svg designs to my computer to use then my machine got here... it is a GSD file it takes.
Is there anything I can do to convert my svg files so it will read them?
Sorry to be such a newbie. Please help if you can I appreciate it.

You do not have to convert anything!!!! just save the svg as a dxf file, open your silhouette software, and import as dxf file and there it is...then save as a gsd...
