How can someone recommend a program before they have even tried it!!

When I decide to download a program from Giveaway of the day so as to test it out, I am given two options, the first is through my Facebook account which then places a link onto my facebook page, which in theory is telling my friends that I recommend this program even though I have yet to download it!
The second choice is to receive a direct link to the download which would then allow me to try the program out without me advertising the program first, and then If I found the program is worth mentioning, I would certainly have no issues in placing a link on there!
So, my obvious choice is the get the direct link, the problem is, I never receive one, even though Giveaway of the day manage to email me every day with their offers, apparently after asking this question on a web forum, I find myself not the only one with this same problem!! To me, THIS STINKS.

Lunarship Software,
Thank you!
You can re-install the program after the stock?
The license will be gone?
I was planning to reinstall the system.

Michael, just activate the application today and keep library files in a safe place before re-install a system. After re-install just setup the application and overwrite default empty library with saved files - this will keep registration info in place. To find where are those files located - use menu item File->Manage library

I've been downloading programs for several years from GOTD and suddenly today my Anti-Virus quarantined the setup file for Phototheca for having a suspicious file called "Installcore.Gen7"

Have you altered your wrapper and or is this a false positive?

Hello Jim Coston,
This is a false-positive. Would you be so kind as to contact our support team at giveaway@giveawayoftheday.com ? We would really appreciate if you provide us with a screenshot of the detection, so that we submit a false-positive report to the AV company in question.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Always yours,

Installed OK on Windows 7 x64, registered using the provided key, and it appears to be the full version non expiring, (needs a restart of the program).
It looks very good, though it will take time to find out just how good. The import is non destructive so leaves pictures where they currently are, and flags pictures within the program if a picture is removed later from its location by another program.
I am getting three vertical bars on the opening screen from time to time which clear then return when performing functions such as go to full screen, seems to be a small bug.
I have installed this on my C drive so hope the database of pictures or however it keeps track does not get too big as my C drive is an SSD. Hopefully I can move it in the future if it does increase in size, as I can see no means of relocating any such possible database, though of course this may be no problem.
A keeper for me, so many thanks to GOTD and Lunarship Software
