Customer Reviews:

A great bit of software for the starter graphics artist [Posted on 2006-02-02]
The first graphics software I ever used was Paint Shop Pro 8. After many downloads of various software, Painter, Paintshop, even PSP10, I bought PSP9. It's simple to get used to if you have a rough idea of how to use the software, even if you don't, there are tons of tutorials on various online sites such as Livejournal that can teach you how to use it to get results you like. I use it mainly for fan art and graphics such as banners and icons, and it serves that purpose very well. Brushes and Textures, Gradients, all transport from other programs into PSP9 with ease - via image packs in my case usual. If you're a beginner to graphics design, and just want a proggie to putter around with, PSP9 is a program designed just for you, with the look and feel of something a professional would use.

Outstanding Software! [Posted on 2006-06-30]
I used Paint Shop Pro since version 5 and now version 9 (and all in-between). Since then I learned a lot of features and there's still some to learn (which is a good thing). When ever I want to edit a photo, this can get it done easilly and quickly.

Don't upgrade to the new version X (10). Corel bought out Jasc and version 9 was the last that Jasc made (and best). Corel made version X worse.

Trust me this one is better than version X (and not to mention is cheaper).

Not all RAW formats are the same [Posted on 2007-01-01]
I bought the software ( Jasc Paint Shop Pro 9 ) before I bought my camera - to be ready to process the pictures I was going to take.
A BIG MISTAKE.

I bought a Canon 30D camera and record my images in RAW format (*.CR2).
UNFORTUNATELY, not all Canon .CR2 RAW files are the same. So, even though the software says you can edit .CR2 RAW images, it depends on which Canon camera made the image. So far, there have been no update patches or upgrades to make the RAW images from my 30D useable by this package.

Great Product, Great Buy!!! [Posted on 2007-03-22]
I am a professional graphic artist and I have been using PSP 9 since December 2005. I use to have Adobe Photoshop, but I found it to be far too complicated. PSP is simple to use! You don't need to know much about it to use it. If you are completely clueless there are tons of places to find tutorials and additional burshes. You can even make your own. It does everything you can think of and I find very resourceful, it can even do screen captures which I found particularly useful. I was a beginner to this program and found my way around very quickly. I strongly recommend this program to current or aspiring Graphic Artist. It really is a wonder. Whether you are organizing pictures or blending images, Paint Shop Pro 9 does it all!

Better than Photoshop CS3 Extended [Posted on 2008-01-25]
I bought this a few years ago for graphic design. It works much betters, and is a lot faster, than Photoshop CS3 Extended. It is easy to get used to, and can be used for photography, graphics, web design, etc. I highly recommend this product.
