Thanks! This video really jump started my journey with Component Studio. I had a deck of 36 cards with about 10 elements created and exported to The Game Crafter within my first day!

This seems like a good deal for all the features. I might get a subscription in January.

Thank you for this video. Learned how to use nandeck from this channel and this is just what I was looking for in deciding whether to try this app as well.

Thanks Ryan! Your videos on NanDeck and now CS2 have been well presented and extremely helpful.

I'm adding images to cards, but every time i move to a new card, the old picture stays. It's like I can't have separate images for separate cards?

Hey, thanks for the video and shining a light on this software.

How would you compare it to NanDeck?
