#SMILEBOX PRICING HOW TO#
The customer service individual then responded to me the next day (day 7 the day the free trial expired) and sent me confusing and convoluted instructions on how to cancel my subscription that did not allow me to actually cancel my subscription. I contacted them on the 6th day of the free trail to cancel, in order to avoid having to pay the yearly fee of $47.88 I was not pleased with the functionality of the program, so I requested that they cancel my free trail. I signed up for a 7 day free trial for Smilebox to create a slideshow for Mothers day. If you have any experience with SmileBox or their products, please leave your reviews below. There are many different websites which offer users personalization options for their personal photos, including Shutterfly, Snapfish, and many others. Review patterns of this sort are not always reliable, unfortunately, as they can be motivated by company marketing campaigns. Third party reviewers seemed to like the potential of the website and to give it positive reviews for all the things it allowed users to do with their pictures.Īctual user reviews are difficult to find however, despite the flood of five star reviews which appear on review sites within a period of just a couple days.

#SMILEBOX PRICING UPGRADE#
I personally would love to see large film formats made available in the SmileBox process.There is a free account which allows members to take their designs and share them via email or Facebook, but users who want features beyond that must upgrade to a paid account. Some theaters with very large screens still use slightly curved screens to this day. Early CinemaScope used a slightly curved screen to correct distortion at the sides of the picture. Cinerama and Todd-Ao were not the only ones to use a curved screen. You can go to and see videos of such installations. A home theater with a curved screen and a projection system to match will cost plenty. Again I will state that most people do not care about "Breathtaking CinemaScope, glorious technicolor and stereophonic sound". For the average schlub like myself we are at the mercy of what AND how a distribution company want us to view films. For those with deep pockets they can get such bells and whistles. If you have the money you can get a slightly curved wide screen installed in your home.

I also saw a 70mm Todd-Ao presentation of Hello Dolly on the same screen and it too looked good. I have seen a 70mm blowup of Fiddler On The Roof presented in Cinerama on the Cinerama looked pretty good.

One film historian noted that a Cinerama theater could in fact present a 70mm film "in Cinerama" provided they pay a fee to Cinerama to present it as such. Another example of a 70mm "Cinerama" presentation was when a local Cinema that had been equipped to show 70mm Cinerama films had a brief showing of Around the World In Eighty Days and presented it in Cinerama although it was in truth filmed in Todd-Ao. My feeling is that why not recreate the effect intended when they were first released as "Cinerama" films to theaters showing 70mm Cinerama films. I thought that the effect was very good even though these films were not "true" Cinerama presentations. They used It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World and 2001 A Space Odyssey as examples. In the Cinerama Adventure documentary SmileBox curved screen simulation was used to demonstrate what the 70mm "Cinerama" films looked like. To demonstrate the effect the SmileBox simulated curved screen was employed to recreate what the audiences saw. They used a 120 degree "bug-eye" lens for wide shots but only sparingly in the first Todd-Ao presentation. I watched a documentary about the filming of Oklahoma in Todd-Ao which was initially created as "Cinerama out of one hole".
