The talented developers at Plasq have released an update to their award-winning design program,
Comic Life, which
we've recommended. Comic Life is a comic strip creation program that allows you to choose from various background frames, dialog bubbles, and fonts to create fun, eye-catching documents. It comes in "Standard" ($24.95 US; 30-day trial is available) and "Deluxe" ($29.95 US) flavors with the "Deluxe" version offering more fonts, templates, and styles. Comic Life is available for Mac and Windows.
The version 1.4 update for Mac is free if you've previously purchased Comic Life (or had it preinstalled on Mac OS 10.4), and it is a slim 11MB download. In addition to a bunch of bug fixes, new features in the update include support for iPhoto '08 events, additional customizable image attributes (sharpness, contrast, brightness, etc.), and the ability to set imported images to their actual size. The 1.4 update for the Windows version is currently in development.
