  • Thank you very much for the program! Thank you for distributing it under a free open source license!
  • Thanks very good project! +
  • it seems a very good software, and easy to easy, BUT it does not work on mountain lion, my system. I hope this issue will be solved soon.
  • This is a great concept for creating animations and seems the most promising of all the choices I got to see. It is just still a little bit unstable (on windows) with a few glitches here and there. I had to use a you tube tutorial to get started and loved it. I will however need to wait for a newer versions since I can't risk loosing a day/s work.
  • Unfortunately, Pencil will currently not launch at all for me under OS X Mountain Lion ( 10.8.1 ).
