Publisher's Description

Stickies is a PC utility to cut down on the number of Post-It notes. It stores all information in a single text-based ini file. They are yellow rectangular windows onto which you can put some text notes. Once created, they will stay on screen until you take them away. Just like a real sticky piece of paper.

I was pleasantly surprised seeing how feature-rich this applet is. ( Nevertheless, I downloaded and installed two add-on's ...Scoop and Stamper... from the developer's web site. ) Only negative: Some of the options were obscure with poor documentation.

Fantastic utility and now indispensable. However, not totally stable under Windows 8: Dragging notes to one side can cause them to simply disappear off screen and need rescuing. Even when not touched they may disappear. Shouldn't have to run a rescue as routine.

simply THE best sticky-note app available, beats Windows' own hands-down

Wow! I'm positively surprised... really a great little program! I love to be able to put some stickies to sleep. Very neat how many little things have been taken care of to enhance the user's experience. Nice website too. If you like it and can afford to do so, please donate to keep the author happy.

I love this program and it is my favourite one from among the different "post-it" note programs that I have tried. ^__^

Oops, I take it back. You can either paste text OR an image but you can't mix the two. Still worth 5 stars though.

dhry reviewed v7 Beta on Oct 8, 2009

The new betas allow you to paste IMAGES inline with your text. Also has a crapload of other new features, bugfixes and changes and is still completely free. Possibly one of the most-used programs ever on my desktop, next to my web-browser. This may well be the very first program that I *EVER* donate $ towards, I'm that impressed - and I ~don't~ impress easily. Would give this ten stars if I could. The only thing that Notezilla has over this is "tags" functionality - personally I'm sure I'd never use that and it sure as hell isn't worth paying for. The only real competition to Stickies is TurboNote - and that isn't free either. I hereby designate this program as an honorary "FF Pick".

It's an OK program, especially for a free one. But I prefer NoteZilla, which is more polished and actually feels more like "real" postits.

I give it 4+ because it is the best program of it's type I've seen to date. It deserves better than 4, but not 5 in my opinion.

Best free stickies program, imho. BUT I still prefer NoteZilla, simply because it feels more sticky-like.

I've been using Stickies for over a year. It's freaking awesome. I wouldn't even bother looking at other post it type programs as this does everything and want and then some. I don't know what the guy below me is talking about, there is no adware here.

@ Nighted: Did I say adware? No, I didn't, you have to read more carefully, give it a try and read again I suggest!

If you block internetconnection for Stickies you wont see any advertising, but ok, they make a living with it and that is the way they get paid and can deliver this cool tool as freeware. Allthough I must say : QuickNotes is more like it and has hundreds of skins available...

Speaking of version 6.0b:
A very good to excellent program, and free. A hard to beat combination.

Absolutely the best program of its type. Don't forget to check out the latest beta of this program - http://www.zhornsoftware.co.uk/stickies/beta/ - a new feature is the ability to simply enter [] and get a fully-working checkbox in your note. Perfect for to-do lists!

Fantastic! Simple is better. A lot of Skins and a Skin Editor. Donate to him/her.

Oddly it does not create a single shortcut on the desktop or start menu when installing...

Nice little freeware...

Stickies probably did not screw up the "Start bar" of the previous reviewer. To see if it did, simply close Stickies and then rename the file shook45.dll (the file responsible for setting up Stickies' optional global hook). I say this because that's the most likely culprit of any weird issues with Stickies. There's no way Stickies itself (without shook45.dll) caused such a problem.

Stickies is great where others suck. ATnotes is nice, but it has been abandoned, and requires you to select URLs before opening them. Stickies lets you simply double click links to open them (links can point to local files, too).

If you don't use Stickies, there is something inherently wrong with you as a person.

Nice stickies program... when it works** =/ Rated a 3 because After installing this my start bar would dissappear and not return even in the middle of a session, had to uninstall to regain stability.

Cool! New to me so I tried it. Easiest stickies to use I have ever seen and it is not garbaged up with a bunch of confusing bells and whistles no one ever uses.
On the scale of one to five, it gets a ten in my book. I would even pay for it. Shhhhhhhhh. :)
