SliceAndDice ReviewLearning Curve Low, Creativity High - Version: 4.0, 2/3/2007 05:22AM PST

Stone Design’s SliceAndDice has opened up many more creative possibilities for me. The learning curve is very low, and there are excellent examples right in the software to show you how certain effects are created. Rollovers have never been easier. You can even roll over one image and have another image appear somewhere else on the page, offering myriad possibilities for dropdown menus, photo galleries, tool tips, etc. You can also add links, image names, alternative text, and any extra javascript for that image right within SliceAndDice.

Once you’ve sliced and diced your image, you can open or add the html S&D creates in any html or text editor for further enhancements and/or editing. When used in combination with Stone Design’s excellent Create software, I have to say that it’s downright fun to use.

No, Photoshop it ain’t -- in features or PRICE ($649 for Photoshop, $49 for SliceAndDice). If you already own Photoshop, by all means, use it. But, if you don’t need all the bells and whistles of Photoshop (probably most people don’t), or if you get tired of waiting for Photoshop to open (I do), or If you like extremely responsive and accommodating software support (I sure do) and free software upgrades for life (definitely), you should probably give SliceAndDice a try.

SliceAndDice ReviewIt's simplicity is its Achille's heel - Version: 2.8.2, 2/24/2005 02:33PM PST

s. stevens
Though this app is incredibly easy to "slice" up an image, the simplicity and lack of features makes it more trouble than it's worth. And at the price they want, there are better options out there. I think I spent 2 hours on one graphic that would have taken me no more than 20 minutes using ImageReady. Why? The app simply refuses to do the most rudimentary functions which ends up wreaking havoc on what you've done already as you look for workarounds, making you start from the beginning out of frustration. Its only saving grace is its rollover features that are simply a breeze to use. The app, however, should be freeware. Or taken off the market and completely revamped with the end-user in mind.

SliceAndDice ReviewWorks great but over-priced - Version: 2.7.3, 8/27/2003 12:21PM PST

Professional web designers and companies may find it useful enough to be worth $49. But for creating personal webpages, there is no way I'll pay that much for it.
