 If I could give this program a lower rating, I would October 28, 2008
This program needs the internet in order to activated. When I contact SmithMicro, Aaron Duryee, their employee stated:
"I do appologize, but if you look at our website (http://my.smithmicro.com/win/photoanimation/index.html), right in the requirements tab for this software it states:
* Windows 2000 or XP
* 500 MHz or faster
* 64 MB of RAM
* Direct X 8.1 or newer
* Windows Media Player 9 or better
* Live Internet connection required during installation to complete activation. <------- PLEASE NOTE THIS LINE
Due to these requirements, you will not be able to complete the activation of this product until you have an internet connection. If you will not be getting a connection at home for a while, I would suggest finding someone you know who has an internet connection (physical, not wireless) and using that connection to get your software activated until you can get an internet connection at home."
When I told him that I would not get the internet at home just to install a cheap program and that I had purchased another of their programs that cost 10 times this much and I didn't have to go through this hassle he told me:
"Please understand that we did not develop this program, so it is NOT something that we can correct. If you want to contact the developer, Morpheus, you can go to www.morpheussoftware.net"
This company does not stand behind it's programs and it seems that those programs that cost the least make you jump through the most hoops. Does this mean that if you can pay more for some program that you are more trustworthy than someone who buys a cheap program?
I guess that I will turn this over to the ACLU because their attitude and business practices stinks of discrimination.
Since Smithmicro can't stand behind the products that they sell why would anybody trust any of their product.
Don't buy any Smithmicro labeled or mis-labeled product. Buyer beware!
 Even Better than Photo Morpher! September 1, 2007

One may start out with Morpheus Photo Morpher and "graduate" to Morpheus Photo Animation Suite, or spend the few extra bucks and buy the Suite in the first place, as it does even more than Photo Morpher does.
Both are easy to learn, easy to use and a whole lot of fun for adults as well as for children.
I can only add to my comments on Photo Morpher--that program is really great, but this one is even better!

You can not output files to AVI or MPEG format; also, the flash output files seem defective. You must basically output the morphs to a sequence of images and compile them in a seperate software. It feels like the makers of this product have purposely disabled it to make it extra cumbersome - it lacks many basic features that the average user would want.
The majority of the software features appear to be enabled, but when you try to use them the software tells you that you must buy the professional software version to use that feature.
The summary is this- you're better off buying the professional version IF you really want to use the features. If you are bent on saving the money, you can make due with this version IF you have other supporting software AND you don't mind a longer work flow (more steps, more time) to get what you want.
