    A fantastic value for the money...

    Written by RD from Grande Prairie

    Jan 17, 2006

    Version 1 of the Print Shop was excellent and version 2 is awesome. It comes with an extra disc of graphics, more project choices and, I'm happy to find, a floating layout palette with alignment and layer tools. The people at Mackiev have their hearts in this program and I have the feeling it will only get better. …More

    Easy to use, with Insanely GREAT results!

    Written by MD from Grandville

    Feb 8, 2006

    The Print Shop version 2 is an excellent program. If you like the ease of use of Apple's iPhoto, iTunes, iCal... then you're sure to like this application as well. Even though the Print Shop is not an Apple-written program, it is a very well written program... very intuitive to use, and very well integrated with the other "i" apps that are a part of Apple's iLife suite. PLUS, the Print Shop is now a "Universal" program (will run natively on both PowerPC and the newest Intel-based Macs (free universal update to version 2.0.2). This is a GREAT program for a new or legacy Mac user! I would buy it for my own mother =') …More

    Love it

    Written by JK from ELEPHANT BUTTE

    Feb 2, 2006

    Love this easy to use program. I needed new business cards in a hurry and was able to whip them out in a few minutes. Nice graphics with lots of choices helped too. The ability to save the artwork/graphics to my HD rather than have to find and use the CD every time is also another great feature. I use this inexpensive program alot for various projects- signs, cards etc and really like the features of this program. …More

    Excellent, except in one area

    Written by SL from Patterson

    Oct 31, 2009

    Would love to see the colors in the clip art be more vibrant--also, would like to see more fine art.
    I had Microsoft Publishing on my previous computer, and the colors and clip art on The Print Shop 2 does not compare. …More

    The program got worse with the Snow Leopard Upgrade

    Written by JB from San Juan

    Sep 9, 2009

    The Print Shop for Mac was never a competitor for its Windows counterpart. But if you upgrade to Snow Leopard you better have a lot of patience. With the new OS the program becomes very slow, taking up to three minutes to load a project, even if you download the update they now have. I have had to go back to my old PC for my PS projects. …More

    Shameful

    Written by DS from ORLANDO

    May 19, 2009

    A total waste of $70 bucks! Pathetic clip art and absolutely horrible non intuitive interface. All I wanted and expected was a simple easy application to do quick cards, signs or maybe some calendars but ended frustrated and completely disappointed. Don't waste your money …More
