Well, I can't speak for the functionality of the full-blown downloadable version, but the online version doesn't even work (at least, not on my computer), so it doesn't instill much confidence for the downloadable version. I've tried it at least a couple dozen times over the past several days, and all I get is a lame-assed pop-up that says, "Something must have gone wrong." (DUH!) "Try again later." I've tried emailing the stupid company to tell them of the problem, and so far, I've not received a response, nor have they fixed the problem. I mean, come on, folks: It can't be that difficult to make a text-to-speech software that actually WORKS, can it? As it is, this thing's virtually useless, and therefore, utterly worthless.

It used to be much better at one time than it is now. While some good art can still be found there, it takes more and more effort to find it. The main problems now are that they do little to nothing about SPAM messages, chain-letter type messages and other garbage like that which merely misuse the comment-feature. But the overall atmosphere of the site has declined as well. Only positive and/or popular comments and opinion are allowed; any form of constructive criticism or, for that matter, any dissenting opinion of any kind, is not tolerated and even censored in some cases. It is highly ironic that a website ostensibly for creators to display their work should have evolved into an environment that is so averse to the expression of different opinions. PC Groupthink is increasingly the mindset there.
