Version: Play With Pictures 1.0.1
Pros: Not difficult to use...
Cons: $39.95? Seriously? Not worth that at all, especially when there is freeware that does this and much more.
Summary: If you want to have this ability and so much more, use GIMP. It is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. http://gimp.org It takes a bit of getting used to, but there is a ton of documentation. Just Google whatever you need to learn. For instance, ... read more

"Easy and Quick! Stop using MS Paint to Cut Out Images!"
Pros: As a MS Paint user, cutting out images is really a PITA. This tool works really well on images that are taken with proper backgrounds and lighting. Working with poorly lit images with backgrounds of monotonous colors will still requires manual work.
Cons: Not able to adjust line drawing characteristics. The line drawing this program does is pretty good, but it would be best to be able to adjust it as the specific image requires.
Summary: Overall, this is a tool that any do-it-yourself image editor needs. Take it from someone who does their image editing in MS Paint, no matter how intense the job... lol. This saves a lot of time when working with the right image. Highly recommended to... read more

"Easy and fun, painless cutting out and layering."
Pros: Simple, easy interface. I found it easy to cut out pictures, layer and adjust basic object properies. I particularly liked the canvas slider which allows you to adjust the size of the image based on megapixels.
Cons: I'd like to see more editing features.
Summary: What it lacks in an abundance of features it more than makes up for with a really powerful extraction tool and incredibly simple layering.I can see myself and my children having hours of fun cutting out and creating fun pictures.Not sure why the prev... read more

"Not ready for sale or if it is, not worth it"
Pros: Seems simple, but that isn't really anything to brag about if it is lacking.
Cons: Nothing special. The hype for ease of use is not true. You seen these same tools before. It is lacking functions. After doing a cutout, there was not way to edit There was no instructions with the program or on the site. I would not buy.
Summary: when a product does not provide a way to edit your cutout, it is not well thought out. You will waste a lot of time if you can not edit a cutout by having to start over. There should be a way to edit a cutout at all times during the process, even whe... read more
