Terrific program with tons of stuff to play with. My kids love it. Each tool can be clicked to bring up another alternate tool which provides even more cool art abilities. This is one of the best programs I have ever seen. Your kids will really love it.

My only gripe is the program can not be played under Windows XP with "limited" account types. I don't want to give my 3 and 4 year olds administrator rights just to play one game. So they have to play under my administrator account which kind of defeats the purpose of having separate user accounts.

I thank my parents for getting me this. Theres so much things you can do. You can Paint, Create and Edit and so on. I wish my Parents would have got me this before. I love it. As a child I suggest you order this for your love ones.Now that Christmas is here.Thats why I gave the Magic artist Deluxe 5 stars. If you get this I know you will be satified.

Just received the CD ROM in the mail and opened it up to put in my disk drive and... it didn't work. Reason - because my computer is a Mac (Apple). On the product description it lists the many systems that it is compatible with including Macs (listed 2nd after Linux). Unfortunately this is not entirely true. I suppose if I install bootcamp and buy Windows Vista (or the like) I would be able to open the program.

Just a warning to Mac users about this problem. I have an older version that worked only on OS 9 classic but I don't have classic anymore. My little son was so disappointed when the program wouldn't work on our Mac computer. Still looking for a compatible version. Hope they come out with universal new version soon.

I was shocked at the amount of content in this program. You can paint with everything from spaghetti and meatballs to balloon figures! The sounds are delightful! You can use all of the characters and settings. Every time my five year old plays with this, we discover something new! We've even been known to fire it up while our daughter is sleeping! I highly recommend this program. I have Vista and it works well.

Pretty program but a bit frustrating.
Why, because:
1. There is only ONE step back UNDO which can ruin your work if you've almost finished it, and accidentally tap twice on your tablet.
2. Slides cannot be removed from slide show once you have put them in.
3. There is only ONE ZOOM level.
4. The more you re-size an image the more blurred it gets.
5. No layers, you have to be really good at merging images.
6. Tools have limited sizing, the smallest size of the Paint brush is too large to fill in a regular sized gap.
7. Fill tool doesn't recognize gray, only sharp black lines, so you may have to redraw imported images, or color-me images.

Much better program than the Disney's Magic Artist orignial editon. We upgraded to this version when the older one wouldn't work properly for our computer. We are very happy and would highly recommend this one. My 4 year old daughter loves it!!!

This is a wonderful product IF you can figure out how to make it do everything it can. It has an electronic manual located on the disc but it's irritating to have to switch back and forth to find what you're looking for. I've even called Disney offering to pay to have them ship a manual to me, but they claim the only one available is the one on the disc. It's a lot of fun but be ready to do a lot of switching back and forth. I definitely would have given it 5 stars if not for this problem.

I thought my daughter will like it ... but not as much as i expected. she spent sometime playing with it, but may be it is a bit complicated for her age .... she is 5.5 years, she liked another product better.

this program is pretty fun if the computers muted and the printer is turned off. Many options and easy to understand. The sound effects are annoying and lots of printer ink can be used up.

It has alot of options to be creative. The only thing I wanted to see was coloring pages so young kids can also use it.
Great Buy Overall.
