Jimco Software Reviews - Wardrobe Wizard (continued)
Converting Hair
Wardrobe Wizard doesn't just convert clothes. You can also convert hair, but the results are less stellar. Even after tweaking, converted hair is still a bit of a mess as shown in figure 5 . You'll likely be able to get results that are good enough for most uses, but converting clothing is where Wardrobe Wizard really shines.

Ratings
Usability : 4/5
Usability scores a 4 out of 5. The functionality of Wardrobe Wizard is quite good, but the nature of nested menu structures makes for a confusing ride some of the time. It's difficult to maintain a perspective of just where you are in the menu structure. I contacted PhilC about this and was told that it works this way because incompatibilities between other interface types and Apple computers. Fair enough, but I'd have preferred a Windows version and a Mac version. That way I could have taken advantage of other interface elements on my Windows XP box.
Interface : 5/5
Besides the nested menu drawback described above, the interface in Wardrobe Wizard is great. Buttons are aptly labeled so that it's easy to determine what you need at any point.
Intuitiveness : 4/5
Intuitiveness would have scored a perfect 5 were it not for the awkwardness of the setup process. Other than that drawback, Wardrobe Wizard is extremely intuitive, especially considering the power that is under the hood.
Features : 5/5
Wardrobe Wizard doesn't advertise a huge feature-set. It does one thing and does it well. However, the addition of a few convenience features is great.
Documentation : 4/5
As with so many other products these days (including our own!), documentation is the weak point here. PhilC points out that he does ship with some great video walkthroughs, etc., and that's true. However, I'd like to have seen more verbose documentation on the actual functions in Wardrobe Wizard.
Price vs. Value Ratio : 5/5
Put simply, you won't find another product that does what Wardrobe Wizard does at any price.
Reviewer's Tilt : 0/5
No tilt in this review.
Overall : 4/5
A couple of minor shortcomings prevents Wardrobe Wizard from earning a perfect score, but those minor shortcomings shouldn't keep you away from this product. Its amazing ability to convert clothing quickly is
worth much more than what you'll pay for it.
