Summary: Scrapbook Factory Deluxe 2.0
Review: 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.

Summary: It Was A Great Gift for My Mom!
Review: I bought this for my mom, who is really into scrapbooking. Since I gave it to her several weeks ago, she has been using it almost every day. She said it is one of the best presents I have ever given her. Besides all of the functionality, she likes the clip art that is included, so I just bought her Art Explosion 600000 to give her some more. I don't usually pick the best gifts, but this one was a winner. Thanks Nova.

Summary: Great Program, Great Value
Review: 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

Summary: Fun, but I can't see it on TV
Review: I found this software to be a lot of fun. It makes very nice scrapbook pages, although like other reviewers said, the clip art is kind of cartoonish. I made a few pages, but haven't printed them out yet.

I'm kind of upset that it advertises that you can make a photo disk that can be played on any DVD, because it cannot be played on mine! I spent hours making a beautiful scrapbook of my daughter's birth and added music and everything, burned the disk, and it wouldn't play on my DVD player. So, I went out today and bought a new DVD player that says it plays this type of disk, and it still wouldn't play. If you don't have Burning Nero software on your computer, it makes it very hard to just burn the disk. It kept sayng my burner was "unsupported". You have to generate a video and then burn it on your own. Obviously something is going wrong because I still can't see this on my TV.

Summary: Got this for Christmas, loved it ever since!
Review: 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!

Summary: User friendly!
Review: 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.

Summary: Vast improvement to great product
Review: 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.

Summary: Good product, with a few bugs.(...)
Review: I recently purchased the Scrapbook Factory Deluxe ver. 2.0 software. So far, I believe that this is one of the best software products on the market today. It is very user-friendly, and without much of a learning curve. You can produce impressive scrapbooking pages, in a matter of minutes. However, the problem comes in when you create scrapbooking pages with more than 12 pictures and text on a page. If you do not print that page as soon as you finish creating it, trying to save it and print it later, is impossible. What happens usually, is that the page with all of your hard work will usually crash, and you end up starting all over. This can be quite disappointing. Secondly, even with a new printer, when you put a full page border on your page, there have been many occasions, where the border would not print correctly on the bottom of the page, and some of it would get chopped off. Lastly, as a friendly suggestion, more templates are needed for the areas of Graduation, Kwanza, Anniversaries, Halloween and Easter. Other than the few bugs mentioned above, "Good Job, Nova Development"! I'm looking forward to your next new and improved version.

Summary: Way Too Cartoonish
Review: I wanted to boost the creativity and "wow" factor of my scrapbooks, so I decided to try Scrapbook Factory Deluxe 2.0. What a bitter disappointment!

I kept thinking, "Boy, this is hard to get started with!" but as it turns out, I wasn't stuck in "beginner mode" - there was just nothing more available! I suppose this is a positive - it's certainly easy to learn.

The graphics are all cartoonish. If you want to create an elegant scrapbook page, forget it. A rustic, outdoorsy page? Forget it. Effects like torn edges or crinkled paper or anything subtle at all? Forget it.

This was not the software for me - just not my style. However, if you are the type who, for example, decorates your Christmas tree solely with licensed cartoon character ornaments and neon colors, you will probably adore Scrapbook Factory Deluxe 2.0. Since I can't return opened software, I plan to give it to my children and nephews - I'm certain they'll love creating silly door signs and coloring pages.
