Picture Collage maker-Review and discount


I wasn't sure what to expect when I was approved to work with the picture collage maker.  This is what the introduction looked like.

Picture Collage Maker is easy to use and allows anyone from novices to photography professionals to create eye-catching photo collages on Windows and Macintosh computers. With just a few clicks, users can create collages, scrapbooks, posters, greeting cards, invitations, calendars, and any other type of season greetings that they might imagine.
Some shining points of Picture Collage Maker Pro of the Christmas edition:
  24 special Christmas templates
  Enjoy the ease and flexibility of drag and drop to place photos.
  Rotate, resize, and reposition images to ones’ liking.
  Get started quickly with over 130 templates for all projects and occasions.
  Use clip-art, text, and backgrounds to personalize the collage.
Export the finished collage as an image, print it out, or email it to friends and family.

 Sounds easy right?  Well it is but there are some major downsides to this one.  Make sure you edit the photos to exactly how you want them to look before you use this collage maker since you cannot edit them in the program.  However, if you are looking for a quick and easy click, pick and make, then this is the product.  There are some really great looking templates to choose from and even a way to make pictures that can be printed from one sheet of paper to wallet size.
The good:
The good is that this product is really easy to use and it makes cards quickly and without a lot of mess.
They have some fantastic template to choose from.  
I love how easy it is to save or e-mail these pictures, personalized birthday card?  No issue.

The indifferent:

The product does not allow you to edit the pictures so you have to do that before hand.

The bad:
The sizing of the pictures can be an issue; it is so easy to cut off someone’s head if you are trying to use the wrong template or the wrong picture size.   While it says you can resize the photo to fit, and they can be edited by moving them in the frame, it takes a little bit to get use to and not every picture will work every template.

If this is something you would like, they are offering a discount until Christmas up to 60% off.  That is 30% off the collage maker and a free version of Pearl Mountain Image Resizer which am I guessing will help fix some of the issues I mentioned.  This Deal can be found at picture collage software promotion. But only until Christmas and then it is gone. 
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.
