Nice drawing program for children. Same features as the Disney games (drawing with flowers, butterflies) but much easier to handle.

Installation went fine, registration too, thanks to the readme.txt.
Works well on my W7 computer. Perhaps not a program to keep because my childrens are too old for color books.

The colorfull interface is something a younger kid should like and similair enough to a real table.

@8:

You check out the shopping cart with $ 0.00, and the activation code
will appear. Copy that code and paste it into the activation screen which appears when you run the program.

PhotoStudio Paint is a somewhat cute kid's app [I think for kids the (full screen only) GUI colors should be brighter] that requires a 3D graphics card & has a somewhat onerous installation. I couldn't register the GOTD download, but installing the full version from the link ArcSoft provided after registration worked -- since the splash screen for registration/activation only popped up the 1st time the program was run, had to hunt around the menus & dialogs till I finally found the screen to enter the key [the button/icon looked like a sheet of paper].

PhotoStudio Paint uses an InstallShield setup, so I couldn't expand the files to see what's inside. And since the 1st thing setup does is check for a compatible graphics card, I couldn't fully monitor installation in Windows Virtual PC or VirtualBox VMs. Monitoring the registry before/after install in win7 64, Regshot2 recorded: New keys: 36, New values: 494, Changed values: 300, Total changes: 830... that includes quite a lot of entries for Tracing, vss, & keys like "rdyboost\Parameters", but the majority I *think* was for the InstallShield installer [Many TypeLib keys/values without descriptions that PhotoStudio Paint seems to run fine without]. PhotoStudio Paint itself appears to need/use just one key, though there is a service installed that's set to start with Windows -- I don't know if the service enables online, community-based features, if it's for advertising other ArcSoft products, if it's tied into DRM, or none or all of the above, but it doesn't have to be running for PhotoStudio Paint to work. Whether that service is operating or not, PhotoStudio Paint wants to phone home a couple of times when you close the app, & it does IMHO seem to have a bit of a heavy DRM feel to it, e.g. the ArcSoft registry key include a value with your Mac address. As far as files go, bearing in mind that I might have missed something since I couldn't do a full monitoring, the ArcSoft program folder in Program Files [32 bit] or Program Files (x86) [64 bit Windows] holds 1319 files, 79 folders, ~63 MB. There are also Arcsoft folders added to All Users App/Application Data, User\ Local Settings\ Application Data [XP] or User\ AppData\ Local [win7], User Application Data [XP] or User\ AppData\ Roaming [win7], & to Common Files.
