Product Platform: MacOSX
Used Product For: Less than a month
I like this application because it's quick with a small resource footprint (iBook user), but it's interface isn't quite like the standards I'm used to from Freehand, Illustrator, and MacDraw II. I don't draw much these days, but this program seems to forge some new ground needlessly in terms of how you constrain lines, how lines are highlight, how you finish Bezier curves. This is a bit frustrating if you need a small, light application for quick jobs, which is the niche this is going for. Why learn new tricks when the old ones are solid? And like most Freeverse products, the price is a little silly; why should this cost so much more than the much-more-capable-for-its-niche GraphicConverter? I will be sticking with the less capable but (barely) adequate tools in the gray-haired old AppleWorks.

A little odd - supercrisp1
"capable for it's niche" -- ie, a similar price range and a similar level of funcionality for a different purpose. I might have compared it to Mellel as well. But it's easier to try to "gotcha" someone than to read....Wednesday, October 04 2006 @ 05:36 AM PDT

A little odd indeed.What exactly has a vector-based illustration app to do with GraphicConverter, in your opinion?
Maybe I missed the point.
