 Good, but not Good Enough for the Price May 18, 2008
Alfred W. (MD, United States)
I purchased this software to do some small scale desktop publishing, and while I'm not an expert in illustration software, I did find it difficult to use. The Shadow and Glow effects are very nice, particularly if starting from one of the pre-made templates. But trying to do something from scratch can be difficult, especially if you have a spatial constraint in mind. For example, I wanted to curve some text to fit in a wheel diagram, but I had to experiment, cutting-and-pasting each time, to see if the curve was right (you can only use the mouse to drag-and-click for transforms, and there is no numerical input like radius, angle, etc). In short, the software does what it does well, but not well enough or easy enough to warrant the price. If it still seems interesting, try the demo first before buying.
 Avoid This One May 4, 2008
All100 (USA)
This software is really difficult to use. You can't save more than one work-in-progress at a time - you must export when you're done. Worse - there's no manual for this product - not in the box, not on their website. And if you need tech support, their website lists a phone number... IN THE UKRAINE! I could go on and on. It's a cheap program in every sense of the word.
