Rocket Life

Rocket Life is easy to get started with. There is a small download that allows you to add any picture to the workspace that you want without waiting forever for it to upload. Once the book is put together y ou then upload it, and that takes a while.

Rocket Life is not as easy to use as they say it is, but it does have some cool features. There appears to be no layouts in the ordinary sense. You can just add pictures to the pages whichever way you want. If there is a background element on the page it will show through the picture if you happen to put a picture on top of it.

You can use the picture tools and add a caption to any picture. You can also add a text box with the text tool and you can choose from many different fonts, text colors and text backgrounds. If you choose a text background, the elements on the page will show through as with t he pictures. If you don't use a background, you can put a text box over the pictures you have placed on the page and the words will be over your pictures.

This software is very easy for the person who wants the program to do it for them. The manual book is somewhat harder than many of the other publishers because you do not have any set layouts and it seems like the background is what is supreme since the elements on the page will appear through any picture on the page.
