Pros and cons of Halftone - Turn Photos Into Comics! app for iPhone and iPad

Halftone - Turn Photos Into Comics! app good for

Fun and useful , good to use . More comic shout outs pleeeeeeaaaaasssseeeeee
Works as advertised. Great fun and lots of options to play with. Two thumbs up.
Love this app. Its almost the ultimate "burn" for my buddies. Take a pic, edit it and instant laughs...... Worth it
Id like to see more stamps and to be able to create a true strip. But, this is a great start!
Your app keeps nagging me to rate it. Good Grief make it go the F
This app is good for editing pics; like croping them or adding cool effects. I love this app. Very useful

Some bad moments

Lame. Wanted to make a comic page ( the old one did this) and its just one panel. How is that a comic book app? Not useful. Wasted .99 cents.
Simple and fun to use. All my friends get a kick out of the panels I create featuring them. All of them asked how I did it and, of course, I had to point them to Half Tone and Half Tone 2. My more imaginative friends create amazing panels with this. So much fun.
I enjoy doing thank you notes with this app.Its easy and people just love getting the post card
I love using is app to create special photo gems for friends and family.
