portable text to speech program

Submitted by gregnovella on November 10, 2009 - 8:17am

is there anyway that PortableApps.com can develop a portable text to speech application, that can support 800 by 600 pixels, uses Microsoft Sam or any installed default voice on the PC, and that can read from the clipboard, when you copy text from Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome by using the copy command or Ctrl+C, it can read it aloud?

I've tried DSpeech, yes it is portable, but useless for my father, who has bad eyesight, who requires a resolution of 800 by 600 pixels, and DSpeech only supports 1024 by 768 pixel and more, which is too small for my father's eyesight.

simple photo editing software

Dear Sirs,

I would like to request a simple photo editing software.
I know you already have GIMP, but I think it's too complicated for me who usually use photo editing software only to resize, crop, straighten photos; modify the brightness, focus, color, etc.; only for simple modification.
I used to use Photoimpact, but it's quite heavy for my computer at home, and I only use the simple tools there.
Thank you for your great work. I really appreciate everybody who spare time to make free applications.

Regards,
Renny
