Vast improvement to great product

I loved version 1.0 of Scrapbook Factory Deluxe, but this new version makes substantial improvements. Lots of neat embellishments and new projects and also the ability to make CD scrapbooks which I think is really cool. I really like this new version.

Got this for Christmas, loved it ever since!

I got this scrapbook program for Christmas, but I wasn't able to use it until sometime later because it wouldn't install on our computer. But we found out that it was something else, not the Scrapbook program, and we got it installed. Initially I was disappointed because there were only a few pre-done templates to fit a certain subject (such as a vacation template about something other than the beach). But when I found out how easy it is to make new templates, it was all right. It's so easy to crop photos and make them look really cool, and I was not disappointed with this software. My recommendation? Buy it!

Greatly pleased !!!

My husband bought this as a gift for mother's day. There are so many upsides to this software that I even bought one for my mother and sister A big plus for me is there are an infinite number of options that one can do. The software is packed with clipart and templates! Yet another perk to this program is that it comes with software to create a slide show with music and pictures, even special effects that can be played on your DVD player WITHOUT having a DVD burner. Greatly pleased

Scrapbook Factory Deluxe 2.0

At last, a product that produces as advertised - even better. I read all the reviews before purchasing and they were all positive so thought I'd give it a try. I received it within 24 hours and downloaded it (so easy) and have been playing with it ever since. It is the most user friendly program I have ever tried - I purchased it mainly for use with my scrapbooking, however, am finding that I will be able to use it for a multitude of projects - well worth the price - I recommend it at the highest level.

Scrapbook Factory Deluxe 2.0

While I admit some of the problems people have mentioned (cutesy art, not installing 2nd CD, proprietary artwork, inserting new pages, can't copy and paste from a different program, and can open only one page at a time, THIS PROGRAM IS SIMPLY AMAZING!!! The scrapbook pages I create are mainly MY photographs with the other nonphoto capabilities of SFD 2.0 (squares/rectangles as picture mats, text boxes, custom shapes, borders, lines, etc.). Rarely do I even think about using "clipart" in my pages. Some of the things that are really cool about this program: 1. You can edit your layout! One of the things that's frustrating about real scrapbooking is there is no undo button. You have to be soooo careful not to mess up your layout when working with real objects. 2. Auto alignment of grouped items. What a time saver! Even lets you set equal spacing between items, horizontally or vertically. 3. Customize the shape of your photo, circle, oval, rounded corners, heart, arrow, etc., over 20 shapes available, plus flip and rotate. 4. Add a border to your photo, two tools: one is similar to MS word insert arrow options adds a line border (any color, varying thickness, varying styles) and the other is to make the border from Nova's clipart or ANY other graphic or photo. 5. Edit your photo. Amazingly powerful for a $29.95 program! Adjust color, focus, tone; fix flaws (clone tool, red eye redux, dust/scratch tool); paint tools; and special effects tools (blur, emboss, grainy paper, pixelate, antique, tile, puzzle, 40 effects in all) 6. Lighten or darken the photo, great for watermarking! 7. Dual-layered page (foreground and background) effects you apply on one layer don't affect the other. 8. MS Word-type spellchecker, very powerful! 9. Export your complete project as a graphic file. 10. Put your completed project on a CD and share it with family and friends. 11. Create a label for your CD. 12. Prints OUTSTANDING 12 x 12 pages with a wide format printer like the Canon i9000 and Epsons's 12 x 12 matte photo paper, absolutely stunning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Check some examples at [...] I tell you, if you like digital scrapbooking, THIS PROGRAM IS FOR YOU. It is so easy and fun to use! Some of the things that are NOT cool about this program: 1. Cannot cut and paste from another program. You must save the graphic/photo to your hard drive and use the insert graphic from file option. I am scrapbooking my 22-year Air Force career and I like to capture pics of places I visited over the years from the Internet (e.g., reenlisted on the USS Arizona Memorial and wanted one of their pictures as my background) 2. I created subfolders under the default graphic file location and added the graphics/photos from disc 2, but there evidently is an SFD-imposed limit on the number of subfolders. I don't recall the number (about 20) but once you exceed that limit, SFD doesn't see the extra folders when you insert a graphic from the SFD library (default graphic file location). 3. SFD doesn't support transparent backgrounds. One of their graphics from the second disc is a torn page, but there is white space to the right of the tear. So you can't send the torn page to the front and have a different colored background other than white, or you see the torn page, white space, and the colored background. It doesn't look like a torn piece overlaying another piece at all unless you leave a white background. 4. No search feature for the graphics!

Best Software I've Acquired in Years

My husband is our household's primary computer user. He's always controlled computer time in our home the way most men control the remote. But now he has a fight on his hands. He bought me Scrapbook Factory Deluxe on Amazon.com a few weeks ago. Big mistake for him because I can't put it down. I'm finally doing something with the gobs of pictures we have of the kids - both old pictures and new digital pictures - and I'm producing really terrific albums and scrapbooks. The software has pretty much everything needed to make scrapbooks every bit as nice as the handmade kind I've made in the past, and there are tons of templates for everything from vacations to weddings to christenings to camping trips. It's really very well done. I highly recommend Scrapbook Factory if you want to do more with your pictures than just keep them in boxes in the basement or on your hard disk. It's definitely a good investment.

Love this Software!!!

Oh my gosh, this software is so awesome. It is better than Microsoft Word! I can do anything with this software. I just got it and I have already created a ton of adorable scrapbook pages. It is so user friendly and really lets you do anything you want. My only irk about it was that you can't use .gif images, but hey, I can handle that when I look at all the other great things it does. I have not had one problem with it! You can even save every scrapbook page you design as a jpeg. Really cool!

Great Program, Great Value

I found Scrapbook Factory Deluxe 2.0 to be a great piece of software - and a nice improvement over version 1.0, which I also own. I work part-time and am very involved with my grandkids the other half. I've had a great time making albums with photos I've taken of them with my digital camera. Scrapbook Factory has some very nice album templates and lots of outstanding graphics. There are also templates for lots of nifty craft items. The software works very reliably - even on my sluggish computer - and has a lot of nice features. Some of the things I like best: - Nifty text effects for lettering - Nice little photo editor - CD Scrapbook maker - Works on most DVD players, but pretty much all the new ones with what ltd. experimenting I've done

User friendly!

I have only had this product two days and I absolutlly love it! I am not creative and do not like spending a lot of time doing a scrapbook and this is the answer to all my prayers! I can make quick cute pages is seconds, print them out and stick them in the book! Awesome! It is worth spending my money on ink and photo paper instead of all the scrapbook stuff you have to buy and store somewhere in your house away from kids etc.. I highly recommend this product.
