PLASTERPYRUS  Great piece of application, a definite recommendation to anyone that needs an excellent sound editor with out having to pay a lot. The developers are great unlike others they have a very generous license policy and aren't asking for an upgrade price every year, and have been developing Mac applications for quite a long time and the interface is very intuitive, the way a mac application should be, cu-does.  
(Version 1.4.4)

PLASTERPYRUS  Horrible, horrible, horrible, I think this guy is just out to make money anyway he can! I bought this last year and had a heck of a time registring this application then, when I bought this it was for leopard even though he update it for Tiger also so it shouldn't matter which version I was using, Well, it still is a mess to register and it's impossible to download a working version of the application. The way he has this set up everytime I try to get the version for Tiger his site gives me a error message that says try the registration window. Well that does not work either and I've tried to contact him about the problem but three times I've written without a response. So even though I've bought a license I am going to have to de-install the application because I can't get support of any kind.   
(Version 12.0b4)

PLASTERPYRUS  Thanks for adding Tiger support, its a pretty cool little application, quite useful-Thanks  
(Version 1.1.5)

PLASTERPYRUS  Thanks to the developer for constantly improving ChocoFlop, specially for continuing support for PPC, which some of us continue to use. I find that the developer from the beginning has worked at adding features and squashing bugs, and as far as I know that’s what the development of an applications suppose to be in the beta stage which it is in.  
(Version 0.908)

PLASTERPYRUS  Why does this developer give such erroneous information about where to get a copy of Descent 2 where all I've gotten of the suggestions is strike outs. I own Descent for OS9 but that wont work and the one that you could get from MacUpdate D2X, is no longer available and I don't even know if that would work.   
(Version 1.14.60)

PLASTERPYRUS  Don't you get a feeling that some developers out there think that their applications are something really great that they have created, very special in fact so special that they can't understand how the world has gotten along without it all this time. I think if I was a small developer I would sure want my client base to feel that their business is important to me and it is appreciated. I sure would not alienate them by trying to squeeze more money out of them, specially in these hard economic times. Just a thought! Anyway its theirs to do and market as they see fit.  
(Version 3.5)

PLASTERPYRUS  Dude! if you are going to say something is free than make it free! The fifth column ask for type of license and the sixth ask for price. So when you put free then that means your asking price is Zero, Nada, get it. Then maybe people might not be so critical of your overpriced software!   
(Version 4.4)

PLASTERPYRUS  Is anybody else having trouble downloading the PPC version. I've gone to the blender site and can't find the link, has anyone had better luck finding it?  
(Version 2.49rc3)

PLASTERPYRUS  You know I never had any trouble with this applications. Yet there was a lot of criticism from a lot of folks that probably had something running on their machine that could have been the trouble. Anyway I hope that it gets some useful feedback since I personally haven't had much exposure to any other programs for this purpose.  
(Version 0.5.12)

PLASTERPYRUS  ROD76 I guess the developer heard you, it just took about a year! Given that this application was featured in a very recent bundle of applications sold to the public, now let's see if there is any continuity in different version, with different names, for upgrading. Is it free upgrade or a pay for upgrading?  
(Version 1.0.3)

PLASTERPYRUS  Painter use to be a very affordable application, the upgrade price was very reasonable. Now, Corel seems to be competing with Adobe in becoming the company that turns out the most unaffordable applications with these last upgrades. These last three years when most of us have seen our salaries either stay the same or shrink or disappear all together, they have decided to stick it to us!  
(Version 11)

PLASTERPYRUS  Let me start of by saying that ArtMatic is really great little application, it's creative, fun, artistic and it can even give to the nerdiness in all of us. The other thing is thats expensive and after all it is only a fractal application, a very good one though but still a fractal application. It has a very steep learning curve though and in the past the documentation it has had, has been quite limiting, making it very challenging. In the past years there has been established a users group that has a very creative people in it, and sometimes you get access to some tutorials from there. The only problem there is that it is based on getting a bunch of emails that for the majority aren't that interesting and also the discussions cover the companies other applications as well so you do get inundated with emails. I myself would feel it would be a big improvement if they went to the web based forum instead. I also wish they would make upgrades to their application a bit more often to fix issues that arise or just to make minor improvements. Rather than coming out with an upgrade every year and a half and charging an upgrade fee for it. It use to be that that is how they started out doing it in their early years, which now they seem to be asking for upgrade fee from 4.1 to 4.6 with no other versions in between.  
(Version 4.6)

PLASTERPYRUS  Even 38.00 dollars is to much for this application. There are so many applications of this kind out there that so many of us that already have something similar in our toolbox are not going to pay this much for another one of these! I think developers need to know that many of us out here would like to keep supporting them through these hard times, but if they don't realize things are tough and lower their prices, then it will become tougher to support them.  
(Version 1.0.6)

PLASTERPYRUS  I agree with other reviewers! The best thing about using a Mac is that you can use them for a long time, they just keep on ticking. As a long time user of Macs I don't go out and buy a new as long as the one I am still using my 2003 G4 Tower, and I know Im not the only one. So I don't really know why a big company like Google would release a application like Picasa that is a ”community software“ would develop for just a part of the Mac community.  
(Version 3.0.0.310)

PLASTERPYRUS  What could be better than a rewrite of the best and oldest of the clipboard applications, a bit on the expensive side though considering all the the other clipboard applications out there. Anyway my old application of Copy and Paste still works fine on Tiger which is what I still use, so thanks for all your work over the years!  
(Version 1.1b1)

PLASTERPYRUS  Very cool application, I have used it since its inception and keeps on going. I use it for a variety of uses great way to access all kinds of files  
(Version 2.3.3)

PLASTERPYRUS  If anybody gives creedence to any of the reviewes written here and you are a creative person that is looking for a really responsive drawing application on the computer and it desuades them from giving this application a test drive. Well you might just miss out! Given that this is a young application it is missing some features that I would love to see included, I say its off to a very good start.   
(Version 1.2)

PLASTERPYRUS  I bought this application about 3 weeks ago and being this is my first 3D CAD application that I've bought, so far I must say its been a good experience, Now I know this is no Auto CAD but for someone like myself thats new to 3D CAD, its been perfect. My one objection is to the GUI of the application, it has absolutely not a bit of appeal its very archaic and a bit clunky. The developer could have put a little more effort into it. As far as the application goes it is a great value. So far its been fairly easy to learn by oneself and the one drawback to this is that the tutorials are for the first version and so they don't quite go with this version but its not to bad to figure out. I don't think its wise of the developer to ignore these little things that wouldn't be to hard for a developer like IMSI to just take care off, since it takes away from the user's experience when using TurboCAD Mac 3D that otherwise would be a home run, as it turns out its a triple.  
(Version 4.0)

PLASTERPYRUS  Well six months later and its still misleading, though it has gone down price, to the tune of 178.00 dollars. I think to boot, the price, it depends on what kind of scanner you have, the price is determined. VueScan is still the one to go with. And guess what it works with all kinds of scanners.  
(Version 6.6r1a)

PLASTERPYRUS  Yeah I get it! UnRAR is unavailable because its a undownloadable, is that right? Unbelivable...  
(Version 4.1)

PLASTERPYRUS  45 dollars, You have got to be kidding! You know for the life of me I can't understand developers like this guy. They make a nice little application like this, that is basically is a one trick pony, a bit extravagant I suppose but none the less, a one trick pony (like some one said it's a glorified character pallet ) and then they ask an excorbadent amount of money than the average user can't afford and than what? Does it just exist sitting there without many people buying it except the few that don't know about the character pallet that comes with the OS X, that even has a way to launch it from your menu bar! I mean does some one like this really makes any money from his creation?  
(Version 4.0.1)

PLASTERPYRUS  Thank You, Thank You, Thank You for your valued continued support of wilber~loves~apple Gimp and specially for keeping it current for 2.4.6 for Tiger. It's great when developers acknowledging that there are plenty of us out there that are using Tiger on our beloved Power PC G4 and G5's with no plans of upgrading to Leopard, at least for the moment.   
(Version 2.4.6)

PLASTERPYRUS  I've been using EarthBrowser since it's beginning and I've seen it expand and get better all the time, and yes it is a bit glitchy at the time but the rendering using the New Adobe Air engine is a lot sharper and it's ability to zoom in and out without loosing its sharpness is quite dynamic considering how you can zoom into your location is awesome. I would love to be able to have a tear off window for the controls to be able to drag it to my second monitor and have it completely out of the way much more like pallets in graphic applications. And maybe also include glacier and ice-flow information from year to year. Anyway good work just keep on going it's an enjoyable ride that will just keep getting better with time.  
(Version 3.0.2)

PLASTERPYRUS  Yes it seems to be doing it to me also, so it must be at their end.  
(Version 2.0)

PLASTERPYRUS  Be fore warned stay away this company has a linty of complaints against them, I will add one more to the list. This company does not know the meaning of customer service. I against my better judgement decided to purchase version 6.5.4 because I've been a long time customer, since it was StickyBrain, which was a great application, I figured at 6.5.4 it had most of the bugs worked out and it still would be developed further and just maybe it would get to be a decent mature product. Well, in less than a month it switched to a just Leopard product, version 7.0. Now beginning again the whole buggy cycle again. Well none the less since I had purchased the last version within the 30 days limit to be upgraded for free to version 7.0. Well I've written three times requesting a license and still have not heard a peep back from them. Disappointed you bet I do expect a response from a developer at least after I've purchased his product and he has the free upgrade thing in his web site. Its a matter of integrity and standing behind his product. Their action or more like none action in this case and others chronicled here and other sites speak for themselves!   
(Version 7.0.1)

PLASTERPYRUS  Great Application! I would like to commend the Developers for continual support and for the "Tiger" platform and making new features available to us still using this platform.( GIMP has stopped developing for Tiger) So a big thanks.  
(Version 0.46.3)

PLASTERPYRUS  I bought this a while back when it was 1.2.4 (something like that), I am still using Tiger, well it got to 1.5.1 and it stopped being developed for Tiger. I feel that it should have kept being developed for Tiger since I think it still had some room for improvement. I just keep going back to that Mac commercial that criticized Vista because many applications had to be developed specially for it. Well it seems that Leopard has the same problem, I don't know how many shareware applications stopped being developed for Tiger since Leopard needs it's own development that doesn't seem to work for both.  
(Version 2.1)

PLASTERPYRUS  I can't get this thing to launch, it begins to open up and then just crashes. Anyone else having this problem?  
(Version 1.1.38)

PLASTERPYRUS  Can anyone tell me how this application is diffrent than Hazel which was an MUPromo not to long ago?  
(Version 1.0)

PLASTERPYRUS  I to having also purchased the Yellow Mug bundle, I have found all their applications to be indispensable. So having nothing to add that hasn't been already said I have one thing to add, buy it you won't regret it!  
(Version )

PLASTERPYRUS  I was a beta tester and I thought the application is a nice little alternative to some of the other pixel pushers around, though the whole beta thing was like belonging to some exclusive club the way that it was implemented, also wrote them a couple of times without any response. Anyway for my trouble I was told I could purchase application for ten dollars off and it would last till the 25th, when I went to purchase on the 25th they said it was to late. Wrote them saying I thought it was unfair to say the offer was good till the 25th and yet I was unable to purchase and their response was nothing, hope this is not a preview of their cutomer relations practice, oh well we will see.  
(Version 1.0)

PLASTERPYRUS  I still like the old version, I like the preferencepane. I like the fact that it was easy to use and very intuitive, when an application tried to call home the pane would pop up and ask do you want to let it call home allow or deny pretty easy. Now it displays a bunch of information that I don't know what half of is.  
(Version 2.0b7)

PLASTERPYRUS  Much nicer Interface than HoudahSpot, but HS I think is much more sophisticated in the parameters you can set for each search. Almost bit but with EasyFind and houdahSpot is all I need.  
(Version 2.0)

PLASTERPYRUS  Gotta join their club or something if you want to try out their game. I hate having to jump of hoops for something that really benifits them, like trying to sell me THEIR GAME!  
(Version 1.7.41)

PLASTERPYRUS  Sorry about that I was commenting on what MACD said since I've seen the practice he was discribing a lot lately and I got called away from my computer and did not finish the review. As far as DrawIt is concerned I tried useing this program a while back and I found it to be very limited about what it could do and tried useing it again and still found it very limiting and since it has no real editing tools or drawing tools that Im use too, does not make it intuitive at all, like the developer claims.  
(Version 2.1)

PLASTERPYRUS  I agree with MACD, It's getting rediculous that there are so many shareware developers are feeling justify that they can charge for developing software that eventually they will make money on! Thats like some company in the "real" world offering a service or a product to customers and them saying that they are asking for pay but then turning around and saying that the product they are offering dose not really exist but that they're just practicing for when they are actually going to open their buisness. How long do you think they would be around for and do you think anyone would even ask for their service or product again! BETA testing is one thing but ALPHA developing is quite anothere. Its OK to ask for a donations but don't confuse that with actually selling a license for something in development.  
(Version 2.1)

PLASTERPYRUS  This is a really good Mac application! Im just dissapointed they didn't put the Yellow Mug software bundle as the promo, not that you need to cause its such a great value as it is, but because their all such indispensible tools. I've bought it awhile back and I tell you I would not be without any of them in my toolbox! Great value and if you can check out their bundle on their website.  
(Version 2.8.2)

PLASTERPYRUS  I gave this thing a try and I said its OK, even kind of fun for awhile. Then it started to anoy me after awhile, so I turned it off and kinda forgot about it. Well I recently came across it again and I said to myself I'll give it a whirl, so I went to the developers sight to see how much it cost. Well this guy must be kidding! 20.00 dollars for this, sheez louis! Made me think how much I appreciate developers that give their time and know how, to give us (the mac community ) those real gems for free ( or donnations )!  
(Version 3.9)

PLASTERPYRUS  Is this anotuere snippet, picture or note manager like Yojimbo, Caboodle or MindNotes with a time schedular and how good can it be if nobody has reviewed it yet.Maybe the person(s) that has won a free copy can tell the rest of us how well it functions (does anybody ever really win this giveaway, now really).*  
(Version 1.0.1)

PLASTERPYRUS  Thank You, MR ARCOBALENO! I'am always gratefull to those developers that give their talent and time to provide the Mac community with some cool and usefull application, but five, well that'a way to cool!  
(Version 1.7)

PLASTERPYRUS  Thanks wavenumber for the heads up about CD Finder site comparing all the diffrent applications for cataloging. I think I'll wait to see if CD finder ever goes on promo. Who knows if we all vote for CD Finder maybe...  
(Version 3.7.1)

PLASTERPYRUS  I've been looking for something like this for awhile now, so this might due. Has anyone used this application or an other that does the same thing, that could clue me in. Also I would like to know has any one out there ever won a copy of the promo? I've been posting a comments for awhile to these promos and never have won a thing. So maybe someone can speak out, so as to give the rest of us a little hope, thats all!  
(Version 3.7.1)

PLASTERPYRUS  This is a very cool vector application, specialy for people who have'nt mastered the pen tool in more traditional vector programs. This application has a lot of diffrent ways to do the same thing. So for people who get intimidatedby the likes of Illustrator this one is for you!  
(Version 2.3.1)

PLASTERPYRUS  Well, Silo 2.0 "has finally left the building!" it's been a long wait for this release, but let me just say its a wait thats well worth it. When you launch the application for the first time, what you see is an interface thats compact, clean, and very economical with use the use of buttons. Other changes that were made to the GUI is that they've seem to have gone to a more to the more traditional Mac set of menus, for me way more intuitive work flow. There is a lot more improvements to this upgrade to surprise and delight the veteran and newbee Silo user, sculpting tools that has a feel of working with clay, there is a new improved UV tool, paintingtools are much improved and many more improvements that let you know that they've been hard at work at NeverCenter to give us this very affordable advance modeling application thats a joy to work with! Hats OFF and many thanks!  
(Version 2.0)

PLASTERPYRUS  So has anybody heard if these applications are dummied down versions or are they going to jump to the next version rendering an amazing deal into a, just a so so deal. You know; you already have three of the applications price at regular license, and two of them are rendered "old version" in the soon to be released version and maybe one is watered down. It comes down to is the developer playing fair and a license is just a license and it does not matter how the license was purchased whether by dscount or not. Or is the developer sees the promo as something thats cheapens his "work" and so he feels that these customers are insignificent and they don't matter. So does anyone know the specifics to answers to any of the questions asked earlier this eavening?  
(Version )

PLASTERPYRUS  If they had some substitute applications that you could replace with the ones one has that are in the bundle. Now that would be cool!  
(Version )

PLASTERPYRUS  You know, I use to love StickeyNotes than Chronos did the GOTCHA! by changeing people to Soho Notes shortly after Stickey Notes went to version 3.0, very buggy experiance for users! OK so than Soho Notes 5.0 comes out and users say well Iv'e stayed with it this far so its is got to be better, so you pay the way to expensive upgrade price. Well version 5 is just as buggy all through its tenure and than they come out with version 6.0 and they ask for anothere expensive upgrade price and you say enough! ( just look at the list of bugs they're fixing now). You would think by now they would be adding lots of cool features not just fixing more bugs.   
(Version 6.2)

PLASTERPYRUS  I looked at the comments that were posted for this application and what I saw was that the first review that raved ( I think it was written by the developer) and the second was why bother Text Wrangler does the same thing( I guess it wasn't that impressive) but the thing is the first was written on 11/16/2003 and the

second on 1/16/2007 and the application is still in alpha development and he wants to charge 15.00 dollars! I think you see what my beef is!  
(Version 0.6b)

PLASTERPYRUS  This is a perfect application if you're a DJ or have a radio station, why else would you have use for something like this?  
(Version 3.4)

PLASTERPYRUS  Checked out this one a time back and I found it to be very usefull if your on a workflow with other graphic app., price was a bit prohibitive but with the Mac promo well why not!  
(Version 1.5.2)

PLASTERPYRUS  A good little application for those of us who are'nt terminal-y happy  
(Version 3.2.11)

PLASTERPYRUS  You know I've been using it today and it seems pretty darn solid and yet not to complicated user wise. Now this said the last person that wrote, has a point about the really handy feature in Password Wallet so who knows if the developer is listening,and enough people request it maybe he'll put that feature in the future.

  
(Version 3.1.1)

PLASTERPYRUS  Well like its others have said CRASHES, CRASHES, and CRASHES. Makes the whole evaluation thing a waste of time!  
(Version 2.4)

PLASTERPYRUS  Every once in a while a developer (Yes he really is a person) comes along and gives us(the public, the many individuas) a gift (as in free) in the form of really cool application thats fun, really intresting, and brings joy to the user and maybe even spark a bit of creativity in the process. So thank you, developer for your time and effort. And I look forward to the fruitation of this program.  
(Version 0.19.0)

PLASTERPYRUS  I also just bought a license for BurnAgain through MacUpdate promo which just happened about a week ago and tried to enter the serial number and nothing, got to be the shortest duration for a license and product to be supported by a developer. So people Beware! If the developer changes I will be the first to write something good.  
(Version 1.0)

PLASTERPYRUS  I agree with everyone this application goes from BAD to WORSE. The worst part about it is the developer does not give a hoot. Well maybe one day they will respond to all the bad reviews and do something about it.  
(Version 5.6.2)
