I use this app for making templates for wood burning projects.
I can take the bare necessities of a color photograph and get just the line work, which is what I need. I use a lot. Highly recommended.

### 1/5 — Disappointed

*2021-09-04*

I was hoping to take my photo’s and make drawings. But it’s too limited not many choices and I had to pay 1.99 to get rid of the water mark. It’s a rip off . I deleted the app

### 1/5 — Problem selecting photos

*2020-11-05*

This really works great once you can load the photo you want. However, it will often quit scrolling through photos and jump back to the screen with the previous photo..

### 1/5 — Overcharged, STILL w/watermark & no support

*2020-07-01*

I upgraded at half price of $1.99 but shows charges of $3.19. The upgrade was to remove watermark. I attempted to contact support which takes me to a dead link.
