Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I was given an inexpensive digital scrapbooking software program last year and found it was a nice quick way to get caught up on my scrapbooking. However the software was inexpensive and had many limitations so I decided to invest in a better program. I found this software had received the highest rating from a group reviewing multiple scrapbooking programs. I was sorely disappointed in the result. It is no better than my very inexpensive version. I was happy to see that there is a 90 day money back guarentee but so far I have not heard back from the manufacturers as to where I am to send the product for refunding.
Within minutes of using the program, I was making a list of things that needed to be corrected or improved for any reasonable use. Things like:
1) It will not let you see the image/object you are resizing while resizing it. You just get a box outlining the object. This isn't very helpful if the object you are moving or resizing is anything other than square or rectangle. Can't line up a round rivit to a curved area when all I see is an outline of a square.
2) When you select multiple objects to space evenly over an area, it will rearrange the order they are in. This is annoying when trying to equally space graphics of letters across the top of your page to spell say "Hello" for instance and it will equally space the letters but now it reads "eollH". It also rearranged photos that I had placed in a sequence.
3) It does not allow for the new standard of 8" x 8" paper.
4) I also can't seem to find a way to lay out a double page layout so that I see both pages at once.
5)Once you pick a text "effect" to see what it looks like, you can not remove it. You must start over.
6) No search capabilities to find objects/graphics by keywords.
7) Can't load multiple images onto a page at a time. Must select and load images one at a time.
8) I found it ran quite slowly.
9) If you add a border to an image and then want to delete the border, it also deletes your image as well.
10) Borders don't fit tight to the image so background shows inbetween image and border.
11) Once you start the application, you can't exit it until you select a project and walk thru some basic selections first.
I found these and actually a couple more minor complants after literally a couple of hours of playing with the software. I edited one premade template and attempted to lay out a page from scratch. I got so frustrated I gave up before completing it.
I will say this program has phenominal art/graphic clipart items although they are often difficult to find the one you want since you can
t use keywords to search for them.
If you only want to use premade templates and just drop in your own pictures, this program would be pretty good. If you like to have creative control, I would look elsewhere.
