 - Very DisappointedI bought Hallmark Card Studio Deluxe 2008 shortly after Christmas and it is now February and i still haven't been able to use it.When it arrived,the case it was in fell apart.Then when i was installing it it would not go any further that disc #3 and then stopped installing.I have sent Hallmark numerous e-mails and they say they are sending me a new disc #3 that will arrive in 10 days,but that was January 14 and i still haven't received it and it is February 5th.I used previous versions for many years,but this problem has really turned me off using Hallmark in the future. Rating: - WORST PROGRAM EVER!!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEYWorst program I have ever owned. I have had other versions of hallmark card studio the 2008 version is worthless. The clipart that is offered is poor quality there is no real variety. The program lacks the ability to allow the user to be creative, the blank projects offered are difficult to arrange, and there is no real choice for a creative user. This program is meant only for users who have no creative ability. If you are a person who does not want to do anything but fill in the blanks and not think for your self this is the program for you. Other wise it is a waste of money. Not only is the card studio a waste but if you spent the money for the deluxe to get a digital photo editor then you wasted your money. The photo editor is joke. It does not allow you to anything with you photos unless you are using your photos in one of the projects in the card studio. This whole program was a complete waste of MONEY and the time it took to install it on my computer. Rating:  - Better than PrintmasterI have used Printmaster for many years, but I needed software for my PC with Windows Vista. This software is great - and the results are so professional looking,especially when you use Hallmark paper. The cards are as good as the ones you buy in the store and really easy to create. Rating:  - Worth buyingFast shipping, good price, great product ( I own the previous editions) and this one is by far the best one yet! I strongly suggest purchasing this. Rating: - Excellent Greeting Card ProgramI have been using CreataCard Platinum 7 for many years and hesitated to go to any other program because I have been extremely pleased with this one. I used Hallmark Card Studio 2003 "off & on" and after reading info on version 8, decided to give it a try. I am so glad I did!! This program offers much more than the 2003 version and is much, much easier to use. Getting the $10 rebate was nice as well. I highly recommend this version to anyone and it would appear the installation problem has been rectified as I had no trouble at all. The ONLY downside was that I purchased it through amazon.com who also offered a $10 rebate, but after I received the software and went online to submit the rebate, it was no longer there and amazon.com advised me it had been a mistake and it was not a valid offer, and that I could return the software if I wished. Well, whoopee! By the time I package it up, drive to the post office and pay the shipping, it will cost more than $10. I just decided I'll avoid doing any future business transactions with amazon, and I suggest you use them with caution as well.
