It’s found at VisualThesaurus.com.

I enjoyed playing with it and put down the heavy cash for a year’s subscription.

    Hey Cathy, why do you think it’s worth the twenty bucks? How will you use it? Or is it just fun. Which can be reason enough for heaven’s sake.

    Ah, the strange inner workings of my mind. 🙂 I confess, it’s primarily that I found it fun, but I also felt it had more choices, some very unique.

    I liked how it stimulated my creativity. I very well may drop it after this first year. I mostly did the year because I hate monthly dings. Annoys me for some reason. So, I figure for $20, it’s a fun, little exercise.

    I played with this a couple years back; maybe it’s time to check it out again, Cathy.

    I should have known you already tried it, Sharon. Just call me the tortoise. 🙂

    In my early days of freelancing, Cathy, I wrote for a site which reviewed web tools, and I tried a lot of new/beta apps. I’m pretty sure it was part of that run of assignments. I don’t know that I’d have gotten to it quite so early otherwise. 🙂

    One of these days I’ll hit on something you haven’t tried, Sharon! 😀
