The Print Shop Deluxe 15 Broadband

The art is wonderful; my real complaint with the program is the website access. All too often, I find myself in the middle of designing something when suddenly an object cannot download. There appears a blurb from the manufacturer telling you to try again later. Sometimes "later" is just a few moments later, other times it can be quite a while. Also, I find that the thumbnails are a little slow appearing, making scrolling through the art time consuming. I would give this product a much higher rating if it wasn't for this unreliability. I like the PrintShop, but I just bought Version 20 Deluxe, to be installed when I install my larger hard drive. I haven't installed it yet; I'm reading reviews here to see if anything else sounds more promising.

I bought the print shop deluxe version 15 because I had been very pleased with its previous editions. Well not with this one. It installed only part of the program, I uninstalled the whole program and started installation again, but the program insists it is already installed. So here I sit with a new program that is useless. Have contacted Broderbund but have not had a reply. Have had the computer checked out and it is the program not the computer causing the problem.

I upgraded from Printshop 12 to Printshop 15 and am very disappointed. It brought my projects up but I can't access them. The "Create Stationery" creates stationery but, even tho' you insert a text box, you can't print in text. And, finally, when you create a greeting card you don't get instructions on when or how to re-insert the card to get it printed on both sides ... it automatically starts printing before you have a chance to re-insert. I've been corresponding with Broderbund tech help but nothing helps. Great graphics, tho.
