“Why is Storyboarder free?”… “F**k those guys.”… 🙂 worth reading.
Great! I’ve also been waiting for such tools!
Thanks for sharing
Good story, however the first link appears to be an email harvesting address. I submitted two email address to them for a link and received nothing. Finally went to github and take my chances with the downloads there.
Nah. The download button/link is fine for me. If you’re worried about email harvesting just use a free alias email address. I got the free app.DMG file no problem.
I also emailed Charles to send me anything he wants in an email, I think they sound like a great bunch of idealistic mercenaries.
It is quite a nice bit of software, I was trying to use it on job but the linking to photoshop wasn’t working that well but its worth keep in an eye on.
