Ok, on your official website I found "Talking Slides" downloaded it and watched the tutorials. Then I opened up the program and tried to emulate the tutorial and found that I could not. So, I assume you have to buy "CrazyTalk" also. If this is correct the tutorial does not say this which I find upsets me! In fact the tutorial screen has portions like setting the screen to 800x600 etc which does not exist on the talking slide program, trial version, I downloaded. When you say the only program currently available is the "CrazyTalk5" mean to me that you are offering only the high $$$ programs and not giving a variety. So, in order for me to work the "TalkingSlide" program I have to also purchase another for it to work? If this is true let me know and I will just leave this project alone and say Ich gebe auf!It is really quite a common practise to discontinue older versions of software once newer versions are available. Also I don't really understand the "High $$$" comment. Crazytalk 5 Standard is only $49.95 which is the same as the price you quoted for Crazytalk 3. And Crazytalk 5 is really so much more powerful than the older versions. Why not give the trial a go and see if it meets your requirements. It costs nothing to try it.
As I mentioned previously, you should try contacting support. From what HiRoller said in the previous post it would seem support may be able to help you after all. It's certainly worth a try if you are certain you don't want Crazytalk 5.
