Polaroid PhotoMax Pro ... I don't even remember which polaroid product this little program came with, but I've been using PhotoMax Pro version 1.0 for almost 15 years and it's still chugging along beautifully. All my other programs on Windows have crashed numerous times but PhotoMax Pro has survived three versions of windows and still works like a charm. It almost seems like a mistake, because windows software is supposed to fail, right? I've tried photoshop and other photo editing software, but I find PhotoMax Pro so much easier and quicker to use and it includes all the features that I actually need. Can you believe it... this software was made in 1994 and still works in 2011 on Vista, and handles the pictures from my new digital camera. And the albums feature is also so easy and reliable.
I can't say enough good things about this software so I'll stop now. The only downside is unless you are an archeologist, it's unlikely that you will be able to unearth PhotoMax Pro because it is so ancient. I hope the latest ArcSoft programs are as good, but frankly until my PhotoMax is no longer compatible, that's what I'll be using!
Great little program. It works flawlessly as long as you turn off Auto Arrange for icons (and preferably keep Align to Grid turned on) otherwise the Auto Arrange Widow setting overrides the Icon Restore program. If you delete any icons creating unwanted gaps between icons momentarily turn on Auto Arrange and then immediately turn it off. Then move the last icon to a new position and back again to the original position (this step is important). Then the Icon Restore program can be used to save the new icon order and the program will continue to work flawlessly and restore the icon order if it ever becomes mixed up.
