BoxShot3D Version 3.1 Available Soon
As you already know, I am a fan of BoxShot 3D. It has an extensive range of features, is available in both Windows and Mac versions, and is extremely competitively priced.
One of the things that has continually impressed me over the 3 or so years that I have been using BoxShot 3D has been the responsiveness of the developer to customer questions and requests.If someone has a question it is answered promptly. If a bug is reported it is fixed promptly.
New features are being added to the application all the time and, mostly, the new version of BoxShot3D is issued as a point release which means that it is free. There were extensive new features added between BoxShot3D 2.x and 3.0 which fully justified its new version number. And judging by the comments on the site everyone was encouraging Vitaly to make it a new version and charge for the upgrade. And the upgrade was well worth it as I noted in a previous post.
Well, the good news is that there are even more improvements coming next months. Version 3.1 will be released and will include some
- Width and Height parameters for booklet, brochure, image and stack of images shapes
- Scale sliders in the Transformation page (useful for changing the size of imported 3DS files)
- Faster loading of CMYK and grayscale images on Mac
- Automatic checking for updates
- More folds in vertical booklets
- A hard cover book shape with flat spine
- Some new shapes
One of the new features is one that I requested – so I’m excited.
As I said, the developer listens to his customers and does whatever he can to accommodate their requests.
If you do any sort of online marketing or advertising you should check out BoxShot3D. You can download a demo version to try before buying to see whether it does everything you want. If you have used any other box shot program I think you will be amazed at what you can do with BoxShot3D.
Oh, and don’t judge Boxshot3D by the banner below – there is only so much you can fit in an animated gif. Check out the original images on the BoxShot3D website…
