Scripped vs. Plotbot

Okay so I know that I am going to use either Scripped or Plotbot. I am doing this alone, but I can't quite figure out scripped. I figured Plotbot out, but Scripped looks better because the practice I did LOOKS better. What's y'all's opinions?

RE: Scripped vs. Plotbot

I liked Plotbot, until I printed up a page. There is extra printing on page. In each corner---title, http:///www.plotbot...., page umber, date and time.

Scripped has only page number...it is a much better look if you need to submit it. Much better! I am using Scripped and am happy. But Scripped doesn't make a title page...at least I don't think so. Haven't got that far yet .Good luck!

I think Plotbot is too plain and medical-looking like one of those unfriendly hospital rooms. So I think I'll go with Scripped, I finally figured it out =)!!

I am going with Plotbot. I use a PC at home and a Mac at work. I found that Plotbot works well with both. Besides, Script Frenzy is a first draft anyway, so formatting can always be tinkered with afterwards, right?

True. Very true. But I'm rather OCD about such things. =D

RE: Scripped vs. Plotbot

On the Scripped writing page, two buttons to the right of the "Save" button in the upper left-hand corner is a "cover page" button. They have the cues; you just have to enter your info.
So far, I like Scripped, except that you can't export your script in any format except PDF, and if you change it to a different file-type, you lose the formatting.
