Review 1 of 6

Price Paid: $0.00 from www.photoparade.com

Summary:

This software is great! What a fun way to share digital photos. There are a ton of "themes" to choose from--they come with funky animation and music. It was really easy to upload my pics and make them into a slideshow. It took literally less than 10 minutes from beginning to end. After sending the slideshow out to my friends, everyone e-mailed back wanting to know how I did it!

Strengths:

Easy to use, lots of "themes" to choose from, a fun way to share pictures--better than just e-mailing out a billion attachments.

Review 2 of 6

Price Paid: $3999.00 from internet

Summary:

I love photo parade!!! It is a wonderful program especially if you have a digital camera. It is very easy to use and makes you look like you really put alot of work into your projects. The software really makes you look like a pro. I highly reccommend to anyone who want to share thier pictures in a extra special way with family and friends...

Strengths:

I like the fact that you can use either the music supplied or use your own midd''s or mp3''s from the internet. Also that you can save your work on disc and the fact that you have many themes to choose from and your possibilities are endless.Also when a new theme is added after you purchase the deluxe version you still get to download it for no additional charge.

Weaknesses:

none

Customer Service:

I have never had a problem with photo parade and have always gotten prompt response and satisfaction from their customer service department.

Review 4 of 6

Summary:

I used Callisto's PhotoParade software to quickly build a slide show of personal photos for posting on the web. I found it very easy to use and I was able to make two digital slide presentations with sound (movies) in about 20 minutes. I would recommend this software to other users who have access to precious digital photos. Their themes are constantly updated and are fun to use.

Strengths:

easy to use fun creative

Weaknesses:

none that I could detect.

Similar Products Used:

Review 5 of 6

Summary:

I have PhotoParade, and I love it! Whenever you go on vacation, have birthday parties, or any special event, just use a digital camera and click. Then all I have to do is just put Picture A into Slot A and repeat. There are a whole bunch of different themes, which I think is great. And it is really easy. Even my computer illiterate mother could make something great all my relatives can enjoy.

Strengths:

It is fun, easy, cheap, great to send to relatives, and has a great interface!

Weaknesses:

I can't even think of anything.

Similar Products Used:

None

Customer Service:

I haven't even needed it!
