This plug in needs better documentation to explain how to get it to work properly with RW settings.

Great idea, but so far my results have been pretty poor.

Would love to see it work, and would certainly buy it, but right now it is long way from prime time.

Outstanding HDR software!

Stable and easy to use, with good support and excellent documentation.

I've used both Photomatix Pro and Photoshop CS3 for HDRI and Photomatix is far superior to the CS3 implementation.

I could really use this tool, but both times I've tried to merge folders the application has quit unexpectedly during the preview process. (10.5)

Excellent game and compatible with Leopard!

Smooth game play, lots of levels, and great graphics.

Even the demo gives you a lot of play before you have to decide if you want to buy.

I used to be a FileMaker developer, but they have long ago abandoned the small/casual user for the big companies that will automatically update every time FM announces a new version.

FileMaker has gotten more bloated and less user-friendly with every recent version.

There are other options, and most of them are free!

OUTSTANDING!!!

I've used a lot of web development apps, but this is by far my favorite. Great features, ease of use, and exceptional flexibility.

No problems here. Running on 10.4.9 and works flawlessly.

It FREE and it does exactly what it states. Nothing not to like.

For what it does, this app has a very strange name, but it is awesome in its implementation!

Nothing special here. Shows the same information as many freeware packages. Uninstaller, found in preferences, does nothing and leaves many files on HD.

Not worth $10.

BlogWave Studio for .Mac 1.0

A good start but needs improvement. No preivew, dual help menus (one of which comes up empty) and no explanation of the overall concept involved so you really have no idea how the individual entries and changes will effect the output until you publish.

I don't know of a better backup solution for Mac OS X. I have used Deja Vu for many months now and it has performed flawlessly.

The fact that the developer has imposed the "no formatting" rule in the editor is ridiculous. It is not the developer's job to tell me how I should write. I think this rule is simply laziness on the part of the developer who then tries to justify a shortcoming in the program with the "I know what is best for you" attitude.
