Version 5.0 now includes over 75 new templates and a library of over 100 sounds, each organized into themed sets. Drawing tools simply include a brush, fill-tool, and eraser. It has very basic controls and simplified layout, similar to that of a children's drawing kit a large workspace is flanked on the left by three sets of tools that can be hidden or brought forward for use and a color palette, on top is a toolbar, the drawing sequence of frames is on the bottom, and tools to record, play, and save the work are on the right. Instructions are clear and concise, and the large, improved and more colorful buttons are identified with a quick mouse-over. Flip Boom Classic is easy enough to be used by younger students, yet it provides all the tools you need to make a very simple animated film.
