User reviews

This generator produces fine images. My version downloaded, before the review, doesn't look much like the images. The UI is okay, where the tweaking is done by editing text fields. Some interesting features, like clouds with more than one word (can be helpful with testimonials/reviews). There is a good list already removing many common, unwanted words. The cloud has more substantial results this way.
