| It was very dificult to use at first, I still haven't gotten to use all of its features, however for a quick banner or stanionary, or a quick photo edit, this software is excellent, I use Adobe photoshop at school, and this program gives me the oppurtunity to open a photoshop file on my computer |

| I am still learning this new software---but it is so easy to learn! Unlike most programs, Photo Explosion is so easy to navigate. I have just finished working with approximately 75 photos from my camera. The download was simple and the editing is so entertaining. I would highly recommend this for any artistically inclined amateurs who don't want to spend a fortune on software. |

| "FInally a digital photo product that gets it!" | 2006-01-12 |
| - Reviewed By User: A9ESGUKQR8C73 |
| Got Photo Explosion Deluxe just before Christmas, and it makes the whole digital photography process a delight. Finally. I've tried lots of other programs. Some are clearly very powerful - Photoshop Elements, for example - but they're way too much for what I need, impossible to navigate, really designed for professionals. Photo Explosion's approach is entirely different. There's lots of hand holding, it's a step by step process, and you just can't go wrong. And there are lots of neat extras, like a morphing program and a montage program and a nice CD slide show maker. They've just really thought it through, and while I've got half a bookcase shelf full of other digital photo editors that have left me underwhelmed, the Nova folks do get it. With respect to rebates, I got mine - and fast. It had the company name on it, not the product name, so I scratched my head for a few minutes before I figured it out. I wonder if that was the problem some other people experienced. Anyway, no rebate problems with this one. |

I bought a Canon Powershot camera, a Canon Pixma MP500 printer, extra ink, great paper, and this program. The only bad thing about my experience was this software. It was slower than molasses (my computer has more than enough memory and a nice graphics card) and it made my computer crash several times. I finally managed to do "something" with the program, hated it, and packed it up and returned the product. The store gave us a hard time but finally gave us a full refund.
Pro's: NONE
Con's: slow
caused computer crashes
results were not worth the time, money, nor pain
It looks like a few people love this product according to reviews but it is obvious that not everyone has had a positive experience with this product and/or the company. Many other products made by this company have good reviews you can read on Amazon. Maybe I just had a bad experience and the software was not designed to meet my personal needs but I must give this product a rating of 1. |

 "VERY difficult to use" | 2005-12-30 |
| - Reviewed By mamatoalexis |
| I got this for Christmas and I can't say that I'm impressed. It's very difficult to navigate and it's my experience that it doesn't do everything it says it does. I wanted Photoshop Elements 4.0 and I can zip around that in no time flat but this one has me flustered. You can't resize photos to an exact measurement such as 4x4 inches like you can in PSE, you have to eyeball it which is REALLY difficult. You also can't manually manipulate the colors and effects like you do is PSE. I'm very disappointed in this software. I don't recommend it to ANYONE! |

| I love this software so much I just ordered 2 more copies for my sister and mother-in-law! It is so simple to use my 9 year old comfortably uses it! Within the first few minutes she was editing photos and creating projects. This has been a great bonding tool for my daughter and I. This year she basically designed the family X-mas card herself! |

A decent program but hard to follow instructions in manual. Have to hunt around and basically figure out for yourself. I haven`t been able to do things I wanted to do yet.
Also, David Scott is right. Your chances of getting the rebate are nill and none. They won`t even acknowledge. Attorney Generals of all states should be after them. In my opinion they are thieves when they promise but don`t deliver or even care. My last Nova product.

| "Nova Development does not pay rebates" | 2005-06-29 |
| - Reviewed By davidsco38 |
| My recommendation is to avoid all Nova Development products if there is a rebate involved, or you think you might need to deal with customer service. This company does NOT pay rebates on time, if at all, and has some of the WORST customer service you will ever encounter. No Wonder, turns out they have an F grade with the BBB and are the subject of numerous complaints with the Attorney General's office. My advice: Avoid ANY products by Nova Developement at all costs. |
