Panstoria Update: NEW Digital Content Available

Creative Memories digital content is now available for purchase in the Panstoria.com store! As a result, there are now nearly 1,500 digital content products available in the store (Buy Content Here).

All digital content is usable by both Panstoria Artisan and Creative Memories StoryBook Creator 4 software. Some content is also usable by StoryBook Creator 3 software. If you are a StoryBook Creator 3 user, please check the requirements for each kit before purchasing to ensure that you will be able to use that kit.

The Creative Memories content will be available only through March, 2014.

NOTE: When browsing the categories in the store for CM content, you will have to click on the lowest level category to see all the kits in that category. For example, if you want to see Predesigned Pages, you will have to select a particular size (e.g. 12x12) to see the available kits.

Additional Info for searching on the site:
Searching for content on the Panstoria.com store.

Many users have asked for a search function so that they can find kits more quickly. We are looking at adding a search to the site, but in the meantime, there's an easy way to search the store for content by keyword. Just use the site search capability of your favorite search engine. The top ones all support the kind of search in the following example.

To search for kits with the keyword "autumn" in the name or description, enter the following into the search box of your favorite search engine:

autumn site:www.panstoria.com

You will get a list of links in the Panstoria store to kits with the word "autumn" in the title or description.

I hope you find this information helpful. 

Clarifications about rumors with Creative Memories & Panstoria from CM's CEO

Have questions related to CM Software?

October 9, 2013 at 3:10pm

Have questions related to CM Software? Here are a few points of clarification/things to consider related to the software:

Creative Memories and Panstoria are continuing to work together to transition existing Storybook Creator and Memory Manager customers to Panstoria, per our agreement before the Court dated September 26, 2013.

• Panstoria has not “closed” the software, and has made a public commitment not to do so. Please do not give credence to rumors to the contrary.

• Panstoria has offered the Panstoria Print Shop to enable customers to print from Storybook Creator. An update needs to be applied to your software to make this feature usable; please see the News Feed within your software for instructions.

• Creative Memories is no longer offering digital printing from Storybook Creator, and CM has no immediate plans in the works to offer digital printing. We encourage our former StoryBook Creator customers to try the Panstoria Print Shop for their digital printing needs.

• Creative Memories Consultants should determine whether signing up as a Panstoria affiliate is right for their unique circumstances or not.  Only individual Consultants can make this determination.

The Creative Memories team is putting all of our efforts into our renewal and re-launch. We’re excited about our future, and wish Panstoria and all of our former digital customers all the best as they move forward.

Thank you,
Chris Veit
CEO
