Outstanding! 
Multimedia Fusion
- Interface: 5
- Features: 5
- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
This is, without a doubt, my favorite program for releasing my computer creativity. The things you can do with this will exceed your imagination. While the program is primarily marketed towards game design, it can easily be utilized for interactive presentations, screen savers, data entry, etc. No programing skill is required, as it relies on the simple logic of each of the many tools the program contains. The program, at first, may seem slightly overwhelming, but if you follow the tutorials on their web page you will see that the functions follow a simple logic. I had purchased this program about a year ago and have never once been disappointed with it. Also, there are numerous web sites that offer excellent support. Highly recommended? You bet!

Good program
Diary Dominator version 1.22c beta
- Interface: 5
- Features: 5
- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
My main appreciation for this program is its quick access of information for a selected date. A paid program that I had previously been using was always so slow in accessing data entries. This one doesn't test my patience. Diary Dominator presents the user with all the "bells and whistles" that he or she would ever need for such a program. Certainly, the developer gave considerable thought in this direction. I would encourage others to first try this program before spending money for a paid one. I don't believe you're going to get any additional features for a program with a price tag.

Easy icons
icon sushi version 1.21 beta 2
- Interface: 5
- Features: 5
- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
Easy and simple icons with little to learn in using the program. Simply click on File and open an image of your choice. Then, save it as an icon. You're done. The program has other features, as well. There's no installation required, which is always a plus to me.

It doesn't get much easier than this. This intuitive program leads you through a simple five step selection process to configure the final layout of your image. Then you simply print it. The program stands alone, with no installation needed.

Easy and enjoyable
Cartoonist version 1.3
- Interface: 4
- Features: 4
- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
The program is so easy to use to produce humorous photos. Absolutely little to learn...just open a photo in the program and then click and drag on different areas of it to manipulate it to your liking. I'm sure there's little practical use for the program other than just having some fun. Enjoy it.

A full feature player
Flash Movie Player version 1.5
- Interface: 5
- Features: 5
- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
While most stand alone players seem to share common attributes, I found the interface of this one more to my liking. This one gives you the option of listing a number of movies in a convenient play list to view from, rather than search and click on each movie individually. In addition, you can easily toggle from regular viewing to full screen by pushing the Function Key, F11. A tip: associate your flash files to automatically open with this player by right clicking on the movie file and choosing "properties" > "open with". This player also supports "drag and drop" from Windows Explorer.

It doesn't get much easier than this. Simply type in the song title or artist and click on the find button. In a few seconds you'll have a listing of titles to select from. You'll like this program!

Simple, but useful
QuickMonth Calendar version 1.1
- Interface: 5
- Features: 3
- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
I was looking for a simple calendar without a bunch of "mouse clicking" features. This program does exactly what it says it will do...it easily gives you the date without taking up desk top space. Sometimes simple is better.

A real winner
YouRipper version 2.30
- Interface: 5

- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
The task of downloading videos via this tool couldn't get any easier. It's a simple copy, paste and save. As stated in the description, it doesn't come with a video player. No problem here. Just download the "Any FLV Player" from Snapfiles for your playback. This is another program I recommend, as well.

Wonderful program
Any FLV Player version 1.1.2
- Interface: 5
- Features: 5
- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
The program is easy to use and does everything the description says it will do without a hitch. A number of options let you customize it in a variety of ways, but the default settings will satisfy most users. A well deserved "thanks" to the developer of this wonderful program.

An easy to use program
Free Video to Flash Converter version 2.3
- Interface: 2
- Features: 3
- Ease of use: 4
- Value: 5
- Overall:
The program's ease of use is pretty straight forward, as evident by an interface that is void of any luster. No help files could be found by this user, but the internet offers more than enough info for loading flash content to a web site. Personally, I like the program and will use it. In addition to the "video to flash" conversion, other free conversion utilities can be download via the program, as well.

A delightful program
Photoscape version 3.0
- Interface: 5
- Features: 5
- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
This well thought out tool is a delight to use. Very intuitive with a multitude of extra features assembled into one program. This is a definite "keeper". The ability to easily edit and be creative with photos and animations make this program a real joy to use. I'm grateful that the author(s) released this as freeware. It could have easily been justifiably sold at a nice price. Highly recommended.

Easy and versatile
Powerbullet Presenter version 1.35
- Interface: 4
- Features: 4
- Ease of use: 4
- Value: 4
- Overall:
A fairly easy program to learn and use. The features of this program may be slightly limited to other flash design programs, but considering the price (free), how can one complain. Personally, I will use this one until my needs exceed its limitations. Recommended program.

Amara Flash Photo Animation version 2.2
- Interface: 4
- Features: 4
- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 2
- Overall:
I like this program, as it's simple in operation. Its simplicity is based on it's limited features, which, in my opinion, makes it a little steep in price for what you get. Still, it does what it says it will do.

A lot of good features
3D Flash Animator version 4.9.4
- Interface: 5
- Features: 5
- Ease of use: 3
- Value: 4
- Overall:
The program is fairly intuitive in learning the basic features, such as text animation. I would have appreciated, however, a graphical tutorial in attempting to learn the more complex features of the program. Neither the help files nor any internet postings offer much assistance. Still, I found the program worthy of purchase, which I may do soon.

What a delightful program to use for extracting the correct color from anything on your computer. Absolutely no learning curve to use this tool. To view a demo animation of the program in action, visit the developer's web site. Highly recommended.

Kurlo version 1.3
- Interface: 5

- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
While the features are similar to those of my Outlook Express address book, I found the interface of this program as having more eye appeal. Kurlo is very easy to set up and navigate. It's obvious that considerable thought for the end user went into the development of this program.

Wink version 1.5 build 1051

- Value: 5
- Overall:
A perfect gem for sharing information (i.e. tutorials, advertising, etc.) in a creative, animated manner. The two tutorials provided with the program, which are actually a demonstration of the program itself, plus a detailed manual make it easy to grasp the various functions of this outstanding program. Highly recommended.

Great program, easy to use
MaxSplitter Free Edition version 1.53
- Interface: 4
- Features: 4
- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
Simplicity is the bottomline to this program. It installs easily, splits your files easily with a supportive interface to let you know all relative information, and connects all the "pieces" together with no problems. I've tried three other file splitting programs (all with a few bugs and error messages) prior to using this program. This is the one I'm keeping. Works well and recommended.

All around excellent program
Dynamic HTML Editor (Free) version 1.7 rev.5
- Interface: 4
- Features: 4
- Ease of use: 5
- Value: 5
- Overall:
While a simple tutorial would have been beneficial in the beginning stages of learning this program, this web design editor is easy to understand after studying the helps files and moving around the interface. I would suggest that you log onto the author's website and thank him for making this program free. While there, download the "Enhanced" version (free), which has a few extras with it. Again, highly recommended program.
