Customer Reviews

The worst software.
The box boasts things like 50,000 Irresistible Images well most of the images are old early ninties clip art. There is only about two different paper designs that come in 10 different colors. This 40 software isn't even worth a free download. None of the images have a photo releastic quality to them. Do not buy this product. I am shocked that Creating Keepsakes would put their name on it.

If you're resourceful..
..you can make this software work for you. Like the other consumers I was incredibly disappointed in the "50,000 Irresistible Images" that the program offered. Most of them were fairly cheesey or tacky. Their selection of embellishments was also disappointing - not an eyelet, brad, or strand of ribbon to be found anywhere! Just some pre-made tags and scraps that only coordinate with specific colors.

The better news in all of this is that the software is incredibly easy to use and understand. If you need help you'll have to refer to the tutorials and help index that come with the software since no manual or booklet was included (another downfall). They don't even explain to you what the two extra CDs are for. Luckily CK included some of their great original fonts; I didn't count how many overall but it was an absolutely fantastic selection. The easy-to-use feature of this product is the best (and possibly only) reason to buy this software.

You will find multiple sites for digital scrapbooking downloads (two of my favorites are twopeasinabucket and digitalscrapbookplace) if you Google for them and can import their products into CKSD. The software is supposed to support PNG files (which are frequently found in digital scrapbooking downloads) but so far I've found that to be untrue since all of my PNGs either don't show up or appear distorted.

Overall the advertised features on the front of the box don't hold up to expectations and I'm very surprised that CK put their name on a product that they quite possibly didn't even have a hand in creating. Still, this is one of the better options out there in a very small market of digital scrapbooking software.

I recommend to ALL of my friends, family & YOU!!!
I got this so that I could do something with all of the pictures I was taking with my digital camera. I didn't want to print them all because then I have to put them in a photo album and I am NOT so good about that. This product is easy to install, easy to use and I LOVE IT! I do agree that some of the clip art isn't so great but there are alot that are. Clip art isn't everything anyway, your not making a clip art scrapbook your making a photo scrapbook. I have about 3 other scrapbooking programs and don't use one of them. This is my all time favorite and I do highly recommend it to ALL of my friends, family and YOU!!!
