Greetings Workshop
If you suffer from a strange urge to produce
personalised cards, banners, certificates and calendars
in the home, this is the one for you. Greetings Workshop
is fun to use, and has one of the most intuitive interfaces
IÆve ever seen. If you expect Blue Peter (popular UK childrenÆs
TV programme: see http://www.bbc.co.uk/blue_peter/) style results,
though, think again - the Greetings Workshop cards look very
professional. You can get away with a black and white printer
to use this software, but itÆs enough to encourage you to buy
one of the excellent low price colour printers (plenty under ú200 now)
on the market.
Unless youÆre very stingy, itÆs unlikely that Greetings Workshop will replace your conventional card buying. Where it comes up trumps is knocking up thank you cards for the childrenÆs birthday presents, or making a card for those occasions when you wouldnÆt bother normally, but it really can make a difference to say "sorry" or "get well" or "I miss you". Great stuff, this.
Overall - Genuine family fun making personalised cards. Priced around ú45 in the UK. Win95 CD. Distributed by Microsoft, web site: http://www.microsoft.com
