My 9 yr. old has been enjoying this game. I think the pace picks up a little quickly for kids, especially the smaller kids that will play this. My 11 yr old will give it a little bit of time, but not much, she loses interest.

I do wish the demo was longer than an hour. I understand the next level can probably be achieved in this time, but figure a way to block it, with short attention spans, the game can time out before they get to play enough to decide if they like it.

Overall, I think it's fun for my kids, don't really have a complaint about other stuff.

I got this after trying several other apps, looking to make stuff for my websites, and couldn't be happier with it. While being new to this, I've had a lot of questions, and the developer has answered each one, and I'm sure most of them were basic questions, in less than a day. Some of my questions about other apps are still unanswered to this day on other software support forums. Most of the new video tutorials have been around, especially if you've seen the SCO podcasts. Would love to see some sort of user generated tutorials specific to this app, that's one thing I wish the dev would add to the site. Crowdsourcing the type of questions I, and possibly others, might have, is a good idea :) Especially considering that a good number of users got the app by default, in a Heist or something, and didn't seek it out because they felt it was the best in the field, or fit their needs.

I've been using Elements 3 for quite a while. I'm no artist or pro photographer, heck, I rely on auto settings or trickery to get the job done mostly! Once I got a new machine with Leopard on it, I went looking for the new version of Elements, and read reviews that it didn't work, so I went looking for alternatives, and found this.

As I said before, I'm not very good in the art department, but I do enjoy using Pixelmator for what little I do know how to do. All the tools seem to be in the same place, which is great. I've not had any image speed problems after the latest update, I don't know if the Core Image problem is fixed, but that's not a problem of this software at all.

All in all, I really like the interface, it's laid out where I am used to finding things, and seems to do just about everything I would want an image editor to do for now. As far as the comparisons to Photoshop, that's pretty absurd if you ask me, nobody is going to sell you a replacement for a $600 app with a $60 one. I think I fall into the 'rest of us' category the tagline mentions, and i'm pretty happy with the app.
