With this version LuJoSoft Movie Nfo Creator 2014 I really accomplish my goals, to make it so that everyone will be able to use it no matter what kind of template they use to create their descriptions, because now you have the possibility of creating your own template to use with the program.

Hope that everyone will enjoy this new version and if you see that I forgot to include certain function just let me know in here.. With this version you can now use it for TV shows, you can make description for general, complete season or episode. Now lets start with the description.
