It is always difficult to know for sure how much something is influenced by getting the dog but we found it a nice s... |

| We just moved to France from the US this past summer. My kids like having a picture schedule and my daughter learned to talk using visual prompts. These will be helpful for my daughter to use at school as she knows very little French. Thank you so much for sharing this :D . Nice! Great to hear :-) ... |

| Picto Selector has 16000 symbols now after several updates. I'm currently working on a database version which should run fine on a network. (Nice for sharing the picto sheets over a school/home/office network) |

| As for the single list updating suggestion, a mod would have to maintain it; members ability to edit expires. But you could start it, and periodically post recommended update posts, that a mod would integrate. I think we're OK on room for it. Final approval would be Alex's, but I don't see a proble... |

Well maybe I could maintain the first post to include a overview of all software mentioned? Then the rest of the topic can be used to comment about them and add new items to the list.
But ofcourse only if people are interested. |

I think you can add at least a donation button from Paypal to get something for your hard work. I'm sure there are people around who want to support it.
I've added a link to your site at:
http://www.pecsforall.com/pictoselector/index_en.html
It is almost at the bottom of the page. |

Thanks for the feedback budgenator!
Well if they really prefer sponsors above helping their parents then it means that it will take more time before it is common knowledge. I get great feedback from a lot of countries. Some countries will take some more time  |

| It looks like that money is very important for the big autism sites. Bringing my freeware into attention is failing and i have the feeling (no hard evidence) that it is because those sites are sponsored by the major players with their commercial tools. The bottomline is that the parents pay for it. ... |
