I quite liked it because I downloaded it and could draw pretty piccies of
what I wanted in about a night. I've not used it to anywhere near what I
assume it can do, just simple shapes. The only problem I had was when I
tried to join sections of uneven numbers. I could zoom in and in and the two
parts will never snap correctly together and do not like joining (I.e. They
don't). I'm sure I'm making totally dumb mistakes but it's fun anyway.
