I gave flipbook these ratings in each of the different categories. First I will start talking about the backgrounds. I gave it a 1 cause there is no actual background to choose, its just white background. Since there is no background scene for me to input.
For characters, I have gave it a 3 cause I'm able to make my own characters but since it has no actual characters for me to choose so thats why i have chose it

  In conclusion, the Purpose Games application is the best choice for me. It's simple, effective, and is very easy to find online. While it is not creative, that is not the angle I was striving to reach for. Creativity cannot always teach. I gave this application 17 points. The Comic Masters program, although imaginative and different, is not the most useful tool in demonstrating a new topic. This is why I did not pick this progam. I scored this program a 13.
    I gave Comic Master these ratings in each of the different categories . First I will start talking about Backgrounds . I gave Backgrounds a 3 because its not all that good . You only have a limited amount of Backgrounds too choose from and there not all that good . If you had an existing account with Comic Master , then you would have many more Backgrounds too choose from and much more . The Backgrounds are really good but since I have no account , I'm limited too very few Backgrounds .
          For Characters , I gave it a 2 because I wasn't able to choose any Characters . I was able to see some of the Characters but I was not able too use any of them . The Characters were actually really good but since I was not able too use any of them , not even just to try to them out so I decided too give it a 2 .
Comic Master is really good too use if you have an existing account , if not there's really no use in being able to add Characters .
         For Text , I rated it a 2 because I couldn't post any Text in the comic strip . Jus like in Characters , I must have a account in order too be able too have more features and be able to put Text . Using Text is a huge part of comics , because it can display many things . Text is a huge part of comic books , and a huge part of Comic Master , in order to be able too use this feature I would need to make an account but I don't have one which is a huge let down . 
         For Simplicity , I rated it a 1 because it was very complicated too me . I didn't fully understand how too use the site , plus i didn't have much to work with . With Comic Master I was lost almost the entire time which is sad because I'm usually really good with computers .
