This is a great program. We use a wiki based system that has problems with its WYSIWYG interface in safari and I have to run FF just to use it. I've now added our Basecamp, Highrise and two internal Wikis to it, even cheekily renaming the program and giving it our logo. I'm in love! My money will be on its way to the developer ASAP. Dave |

Well I'm impressed! This 'free' program is mainly just an elaborate gimmick to take advantage of their book printing service. However, the program itself is very well designed and is a pleasure to use. It is also fairly extensive and if you're a designer looking for a fancy portfolio like myself, it's excellent. One big flaw from my personal point of view - it doesn't ship to the UK making this fairly redundant. Please mr. Developer, get in touch with them and tell them to give us a chance! We do pay for our goods on time ya know? |

Just to note, Photoshop's liquify filter may be 'free' but it comes with the full retail of this professional software. I agree that $100 dollars does seem a little steep in this instance however |

This is a great widget, but essentially it's just a great interface for a website I had never come across before. And what a fine website it is! There are many times when I have required a hi-res copy of a company logo, and this website just on my first 5 searches, solved 5 of my problems. Highly recommended. Thanks to the widget developer! |

I don't know about Ozz's experience, but I have to say that my own was flawless. Click a button and there is all was! very impressive - this is 50% of my wishlist out of the way - just need video and then I won't have to fork out on some Elgato solution. I'd pay big money for this feature mr developer, but sadly I don't know how impossible it would be. As far as the program stands - thankyou so much! I've tried alternative methods that were as complicated as the were useless. This was a breeze. |

beautifull! reminds me of the time i got so damn mad that i through my lava lamp at a wall and it bounced. Believe me, it'll take at least 2 attempts to shatter and the mess isn't worth it. Cheers Mr. Developer! :D (although, why does my Lamp have a different shape to the MU pic? Mine's a rocket!) |

Hmmm, there's not much to review as such, but I can't say I've ever had much desire for a slightly transparent animated gif to float around my desktop. Certainly interesting and unique, but I can't say I've every pay for it. |

Highly recommended to Moto V3 owners who are currently out of the Apple loop - sadly our phones are not supported by iSync... but with this program stepping in so well to fill this gap, it makes you wonder why the hell Apple doesn't support them! Anyway, a very professional and reliable program that has helped me keep in touch with people a lot easier. Best of luck with future development of this program. |

Yeah, as an idiot who just coughed up £20 for this beauty - STFU Anon.! This program has helped me catagorise my fairly extensive DIVx collection, much like how I intended to use iFlix but without having to actually the file on my HD... e.g. the great 'Location in Building' field easily lets me find any film |

Yep, turn on that thing like that guy suggested and I can't wait to check it out! My PSP is my love, but at the moment there are no easy ways to use the rest of its multimedia capabilities. It took me long enough to work out how to get it to show images! And an MP3! As for video, I believe this is supposed to be very difficult, and the developer may need the help of an awful lot of PSP MAcheadz to crack it. Even though the PSP supports .mp4 etc... nobody has found ANY way of converting video for use on PSP from a MAC. I so need it though! That PornStationPortable is dying to come out! |

Its good to know that this program exists... even if it is a little late.. I spent MANY hours adding keywords to my 6k+ iPhoto collection... using the inbuilt Keyword thing. I agree it is horrific Well done for beating Apple to it! |

Just last week MenuCalander revolutionised my diary, and to find this free alternative is a lifesaver! I love the way it doubles up as a clock - instantly a more sensible option than *another* icon on my menubar. It also seems to slide a lot more effectively into the screen. It also grows to the depth of my full 20" screen, as opposed to MenuCalander which stays a fixed size and makes reading a lengthy 'to-do' list near impossible. There is one feature that I would like to see in the next version though.. is there any way the Events tab can be split into two... such as Events/To-Do>? this would make it much more easier on the eye. Other than that I really cannot fault this program. |

Mr Business is Good... i think the person was referring to the fact that you are making money from a program which is about 3,000millionbillion times more complicated that this glorified applescript. They have the decency to put in their many many hours of programming time to help better the Mac community without charging, so why should you charge for this? If it let me watch films on my mobile Via VLC then FAIR ENOUGH, but somehow i doubt that will happen ;) |

"Enhanced flight path code to eliminate 'wobble'" they don't just wobble.. they kind of stutter across the screen like clone dragonflies.. and don't even TRY making the 'flies 200% larger... Sorry developer, don't know what you're trying to do here. |

it does what it says on the tin... however, is there NO WAY to close the application without shutting down? also I have changed my screensaver in prefs, and it is still insisting on playing the previous one.. :( probably not the best type of program of its kind. :/ |

for those commenting about the full screen 'bug'.. you don't have to restart your computer.. just press 'Apple + F' and the screen will flip back to a smaller state. Follow that with one press of the escape key and bingo.. you've got control of the mouse. Even my wife worked that out :) |

As a newspaper designer i'm looking forward to see if my 'pagely wage' is better than an 'hourly wage' Great program btw, and thanks for making it free.. i've seen similar programs, but paying for a way to see how much you're being paid seems a bit alien to me. |

One perfectly simple reason to download this problem is a relatively unannounced feature. Quicktime is a bit stingy disallowing the ability to watch files in full-screen mode.. with this high-tech feature only becoming active after shelling out $30 for the upgrade to Pro. Romeo shows that the full-screen mode should be a standard feature in the player, seeing as you can activate FS mode. Peace & Love |

Now this is EXACTLY the kind of program the world has been missing. This is simply one of the most original/entertaining programs available at MU! Very polished panoramas, and plenty of them! Very user friendly, and just so so so FREE :D I recommend EVERYONE downloads this and goes for a trip. |

Hmmm.. seem to have problems removing this program from my system. I double clicked it twice (by accident) and its now stick two of its icons in my top bar. That doesn't bother me.. but the problem is that it won't quit when i click quit! :'( |

Seems to be a fairly simple to use P2P program.. but I can't help but notice that few, if any, downloads are actualy coming down! To reliably steal from the Kazaa and Donkey networks would be great news to be, however while the search results are long and positive looking, the actual downloads seem few and far between. I still stand by the wealth of data that is Direct Connect, and although its much more complicated than these 300k programs, once you get used to it you can grab stuff at speeds faster than my actual connection should officially allow! I'm in the UK and lucky to own a reliable 1MB connection; it still baffles me how it can download at 150kbs day in day out. :) Nice program, easy to use, fantastic results just ending up more of a bootleg store you don't get to go into as opposed to a 'kid in a candystore' situation. |

Ok, well i've spent a while using this program now, and the final verdict is out.. SIMPLY ONE OF THE BEST FEATURES TO ADD TO iTUNES YET! Apple take note, you should buy this developer purely for having the fore-sight to design a feature that should really be intergrated into iTunes from download. One night i threw causion to the wind and 'fetch art'ed my entire 10,000+ song library. The next morning i was amazed as the majority of my music collection now had covers! What i found particularly facinating was to put in the singles' album title and be amazed to see the CD single cover i saw many years ago suddenly appear next to the tune. Still needs a progress bar etc.. and some way of prompting you to fill in the album section for artists who are blank. Well something like that anyway, but apart from that, EXCELLENT WORK! Apple take note. |

Well i'm a bit gutted. I have recently moved my work platform over to Mac, to compliment my home iMac. I was amazed to realise that I could browse my tunes on my home mac from Work.. and they all play just as quick as when i'm at home! And now they take this feautre away.. ARGH! I was so excited to be able to let my friend in Greece browse my tunes directly from HIS mac. I do disagree with the fact that hacks appeared allowing users to rip such tunes ala Napster.. but come on.. there must have been some kind of compromise Apple could have resorted to before just 'rippin, mixing and burning' their philosophies. |

very nice! what a cool idea for a program! I'm sure this solves a lot of peoples' problems with regards to iTunes' rating category.. its a really cool idea, its just not practicle to sit there and go through them one by one.. This program works perfectly, and easily wfills the gap before Apple design a way of rating them through the amount of sweat through the palms of your hands. Oh, but apart from that i agree with SpicyChickenManifesto! |
