flip book

My rating is a 5 being the best and a 1 being the worst. I rated color 5 because the things on this are pictures of nice colors. Whatever type of pictures i put on this tool, it looks exactly identical. The graphics is one because it really doesn't have any graphics on this tool. It is mostly just a PowerPoint but with pictures. In this case, it only will have pictures. The simplicity for me was a four because because it was really easy but it isn't as easy constructing it like Devolve. The entertainment was a 3 because it seems that depending on the pictures you can see this as entertaining and yet not so entertaining. The total points for Smile box is 13.
