Software Review:
SPG ColorWorks:Web
Part 1
By Scott Clark
A Graphic tool designed around the Web!
Before you say to yourself, "what, another graphics tool?" you ought to take a quick look at SPG ColorWorks:Web 3. This tool has many of the features of industry leading graphic software, and a lot of Web "extras" thrown in for good measure. What extras? How about a built-in image browser that allows you to instantly see all the images in any given directory? Or a Web Graphics Spider that will go out on the Web and grab all the graphics from any Web site? And then there's the animation tools, graphic optimizers and background designers...along with all the normal graphic tools you'd expect.
You may not have heard of SPG before this review--they've spent most of their money on developing the product instead of advertising it--but we think you deserve to know about ColorWorks:Web, so read on for the full review.

The installation procedure is pretty straightforward, with no surprises. The tool does utilize about 70 MB of space on your drive, but that's mostly for the included textures and the large 41MB Online MEGA Manual (yes, that's its actual name). I guess they didn't want to leave anything out!
