4.0 out of 5 stars 2nd graders love kid pix 3, July 24, 2001

By	Diane Walter (Willington, CT United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We have been using Kid Pix Studio Deluxe in our school for over 3 years. I bought this new version to try out with my class and they thought it was great. They all wanted to try out the new features, which they thought enhanced the program even more. I will definitely use this use version with my class in the fall. I use it to get my students interested in learning computer skills and to have fun at the same time. I gave it a four because I had to really spend time learning the new setup ,because it is so different. One big plus,I don't have to set the video settings at 256 colors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Most amazing drawing program ever created., February 15, 2001

By	Ed Ackerman (Montreal) - See all my reviews

(Excerpt from a letter that I wrote directly to the product manager of Kid Pix.) ...."This is the most amazing drawing program that has ever been created. You have done a great job! You have taken advantage of every computer advancement of the past 12 years and have put it in the hands of children! Good show! You have combined game, television, art, science, math, education, music with passive/active entertainment. Kid Pix shows off what computers can do at their best. It teaches how to use a modern computer, without words! It is fast and it is stable. Very well done.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kid Pix is the Best!!, January 26, 2001

By	Rob Elhardt (Novato, CA United States) - See all my reviews

As the Producer of Kid Pix Deluxe 3, I'm writing to recommend it to everyone. I'm biased, but I think you'll find it just as cool as I do. Unfortunately, the editorial review above is not very useful -- it's for the old version of Kid Pix.

Kid Pix Deluxe 3 is a brand new product built on the same great philosophy: to provide kids with the most open-ended, creative art and multimedia experience possible. Kid Pix creations can include backgrounds, animations, stickers, stamps, text, music, imported photos or movies, self-recorded sounds, and more. The interface is fun, easy-to-use, and lively with sound and motion (the buttons wiggle and the brushes squish when you use them).

Once you have a finished picture there's a whole new set of options - make a slide show with great visual and sound effects; export it as a movie or flash animation for the family web page, or share it with all your friends and relatives through the Kid Pix Email Center.

Kid Pix really is for kids of all ages. Even teenagers (a generally sullen bunch) have given us rave reviews.

I hope you'll try Kid Pix Deluxe 3. I haven't found a kid yet who didn't think it was the coolest.
