Comic Life 3 available $14.99 through 10/20/2013

So why would I post this here - besides the fact that it's way off topic?
I find Comic Life to be a very good tool for illustrating screen shots at times. Interestingly, I've never used it here but have on other forums when I want to make a point in a hurry. The text bubbles with pointers are really good as are the drawing and formatting tools.
You've seen it whether you know it or not. Some companies are even doing their manuals with it now. Comic Life is easy to use and it's fun if you want to use it for the intended use.
For new users, the price is $14.99 through the App Store or the web site. A 5 user Family Pack license is $44.99. Supposedly the prices go up after Oct. 20, 2013
If you have v.1 or v.2 like I do the upgrade is $14.99 for a single user or $24.99 to get a 5 user Family Pack license (even if you have a single user license now) and are still good after Oct 20. The App store does not support upgrades.
They announce that a Windows version3 is on its way but I don't see any details. Windows version 2 is currently available.

Cute. There's this, too, for $2.99 in the app store.

It seems Comic Life 3 is the DP of the apps and phototocomic is, like, the Cubase version.

I tried Comic Life 3 and bought it. It tends to crash during text insertion... but it processes pictures into cartoons nicely.

I have v.2 and upgraded my Family Pack for the $25.
They are pretty good about bug fixes and updates so, hopefully, any new issues should be resolved soon.

Thank you, Sir. Since I updated a 5-user license, mine didn't show up in the app store but when I fired it up, it asked if I wanted to update so all is good.MIDI Life Crisis wrote:Update to Comic Life 3 in the app store this morning. Fixed the triple click crash in text...
