Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I was really excited to get this in the mail. The front of the frame is glass and the pictures are very clear. My complaint, and reason for 2 stars, is I installed the DVD and was ready to add effects to my pictures and the software is missing Moving Memories effects to alter people or pets! This is the main reason I got the frame. It has effects for fire, water, sky and lights and that's it. If you go on the website, their FAQs only have 3 simple questions and the website only works about 50% of the time. The software is buggy. It crashed on my multiple times in the hour I have messed around with it. If they can fix this so that the software does what they advertise, I will definitely change my rating, but until they do, they only deserve 2 stars.
***Update***
I changed this to one star because I failed to try out the pictures I spent an hour editing and sending to my frame. I followed the directions exactly and used the remote to select "slide show" on the frame. The frame flashes, then goes back to the main menu. I couldn't get it to do a slide show at all that way. So I selected "pictures" and not a single picture I selected to add to my frame, actually transferred. When you add the effects to a picture, they make you preview the picture first. That takes forever. Then when you decide you want it transferred to your frame, you have to wait forever again for it to transfer. You then get a screen that tells you to unplug your frame from the power source to reset the frame. I do that, and again, nothing on the frame. When you edit your pictures in the software provided, you cannot save any effects you add. My hour spent editing photos and transferring them to my frame...completely wasted. The only way I have found that I can add pictures to this frame is by opening up the frame under "my computer" and dragging the photos from my folder, to that folder. If that's all this thing is good for in the end, DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON IT. I bought this frame for the effects. I cannot get a single effect to work. I honestly feel like I was ripped off.
***Update again***
I know some people may not think my review of this frame is very professional because I keep changing my review, but I emailed the company about missing software. There was some confusion about the product and how it was advertised at the time I purchased it. I didn't purchase this off of Amazon, I purchased it on Woot. Apparently on Woot, it was supposed to be known that the one on there wouldn't have the additional software. It was not advertised and the company wrote me a long email explaining all of this. They are going to send me a disc with the software that has the effects I had bought this frame for. When I get the disc (they let me know this can take up to two weeks)I will give this item a 5 star reveiw.
I also found out through using the software, you have to give a name to every picture you want to upload to your frame. If you do not do this, it will not give it a default name and it will not show up on your frame. I was able to get the pictures to load. It is a long process, but the end result is amazing. I really do like this product and after all of this confusion, it will still be worth all five stars. I do hope to update this review one last time in a week or two, to five stars.
