Faithful Posted March 26, 2016 Report Share Posted March 26, 2016 Hello all, I just found this site and software. My question is a simple one. Does Pictures to exe periodically go on sale? If so, how often and what is the typical sale cost? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davegee Posted March 26, 2016 Report Share Posted March 26, 2016 I do not remember it ever being "On Sale" since round 2004 (ish). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you I go back to 2002 when it was only one version of the software with free update, I have never seen it on sale. Just be aware new version will be released soon / 2 - 3 months etc. etc. if you could wait the software is an excellent choice in comparison. In my opinion the developer is shooting himself in the foot by vague announcement!! Not to mention nonsense reply from senior members in this forum!!

Could be someone who has managed to circumvent PTE's elaborate security system & able to offer a non official copy of the software. People sell audacity, although it's free!!!, They also sell Camtasia, which usually retails at hundreds of pounds, for a fraction of the official cost, how long it would work??? You pays your money & takes your choice. Yachtsman1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wideangle Posted March 26, 2016 Report Share Posted March 26, 2016 I'm not sure that I understand any of the above dialogue! If you are simply asking whether you can buy Picturestoexe, then go to www.wnsoft.com/picturestoexe If you are asking whether there are special offers on the price occasionally, then I am not aware of any.

JudyKay Posted March 26, 2016 Report Share Posted March 26, 2016 I think it is ALWAYS on sale. The bang you get for you buck is vastly greater than anything approaching equivalent out there. I don't think anything else out there really is equivalent at any price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Yachtsman1 Posted March 27, 2016 Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 Hi Judy I think we need to see what is in 9 & the cost before making that assumption? I'm still trying to master 8.0.17 Regards Eric Yachtsman1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG Firstly, my apology if you were offended .. My comment was not directed at you. The original author of this thread asked if the software periodically go on sale, fair question. What puzzled me is comment/reply made about pirated copy of the software!! My personal experience is similar with the reply to diverged when I ask legitimate question. For month and a half now I've been asking if there is a time frame for version 9 release, so I could make a decision whether to upgrade now or wait. All I got is soon, wait and see and links to the software comparison, I already know this there is also the demo V8 to download and test drive the software. I use the software for business and if the new release is going to be six months to a year then I would upgrade now and make the decision about version 9 when released. I hope that explain my frustration about asking simple questions in this forum and getting the runaround. Regards, SM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davegee Posted March 27, 2016 Report Share Posted March 27, 2016 Hi SM, No problem - and thanks for clarifying. I have urged Igor to make regular announcements but I think that the task that he has set himself was more than he expected and hence it is taking a little longer. We are all eager to see version 9 appear in Beta form but I'm afraid the best answer that we have is what Igor gave us recently. Please don't expect that the "finished" version 9 is going to appear soon - Beta testing might take some time - weeks/months. DG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some users may just use the software as a hobby, or be on low income. But if you use it for business, good grief. Just upgrade. You know your financial situation, but investing the price of a PTE upgrade in a product that makes you a profit makes business sense to me. On the other hand, if what you are using is meeting your client's needs for now, then wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
