Avoid!! The comic is cute, its nice with the images and personal details hence the second star BUT the story makes no sense, it is riddled with inconsistent images so every single panel needs correcting often multiple times if the AI can't understand. So that means several extra payments to fix it. Once you pay for generating the comic, you cant get a refund. And customer service is almost impossible to contact. So youre stuck with either getting a fairly rubbish comic, or spending double the amount to fix it. Incredibly expensive for something that is essentially a brief novely for a smile. It made me smile but it is entirely NOT worth the money!

Okay, I admit I haven't gone ahead to buy the book. Initial glance at the generated cover and back cover (I can't see more without paying) look reasonable. But a closer look shows one of the distance shots of the cat has two tails, my child's friend has two pony-tails, and the AI can't cope with a one-eyed cat. My photograph is clear, but the AI is putting two eyes on the cat. One of its main features is that it has one eye! The black and white colouring of the cat is inconsistent between front and back cover too. A shame as it seems such a good idea, but based on the images I'm shown before committing to purchase, I won't be continuing.

Whilst the quality of the books are great, the process is terrible. I'm from the UK, so I know there will be a delay in communication, but 5 days later after over 8 emails plus about 3 or 4 website messages and only two responses isn't great. I built my book and there was loads of errors. Firstly you pick you characters and give a description of what they are like, plus a photo. I noted my mother was in a wheelchair. Every photo of my mother she was stood up. So I had to go to every image and edit it. Every edit you use a credit and I didn't have enough credits to charge all the images. The two emails I received they gave me 10 credits. However, that was not enough. Generating a new image then effected the other characters. Placing them in a wheelchair or speaking instead of the person supposedly speaking. Changing nephews into brothers. It was soul destroying, I couldn't even give up, as you have to pay before producing the book. After the last credits I was given I thought I'd completed it and went to bed to check again the following morning. However, it had gone to print and published. I then noticed one of the photos my mother was standing and another person was in a wheel chair. I was so upset. I checked my other images and noticed I had actually generated the correct image but hadn't highlighted it, so it didn't save it for print. There really should be a double check feature just incase. It took me 5 days to build the 32 page gloss book (i paid the extra for their best version) having to wait for a return email and the credits i received. I'm not sure if it's a really small business with just a handful of customer support staff. But this needs to be looked at. I was so excited to begin with in building the book, that is now ended in disappointment knowing that when it arrives, it's going to be wrong. My mother has terminal cancer, my father not in the best of health, so was hoping this would have given them some enlightenment under the circumstances.
