Wow! This is indeed an awesome toy! Anybody fooling around with design and signage will definitely find huge value here, and as for the individual person that want to personalise something it is also a very unique tool.
It’s a shame it’s no longer free. I can’t believe people are paying 10 dollars for that. It should’ve stayed free.
