Nice program.
6 gigs of RAM says Prat Zero? Prat Zero is just a joke around here, well he would be if he wasn't so pathetic.

VERY FUN. No Install. I like that.
Phones home (sourceforge.net) when you start it to do a new version check. Turn that off under the Edit, Edit Settings... then Save Settings as default. Seems odd to have to do the extra step to save settings.
Loaded a 587KB jpg image, played around with all the sliders, changed to a TrueType font, played around some more, saved image as a .jpg file. Peak memory usage of the Ascgen dotNET.exe was 72MB. Loaded a 3.3MB image, did all the above, peak mem usage was ~104MB. Not a problem.

This is the most fun I've had with an app other than a game for a long time. Just get it and play around. It seemed to work best for me on face pictures.
Kudos to the author for a great app.

I use Sysinternals TCPView to see if things are phoning home. Free from MSFT and very easy to use.

pola,
blame your computer that cannot start .net, not the program that uses it. You definitely should buy some RAM, 512Mb is way too small...
