photoshop or paint shop pro

[John]

I went to an opening evening at a colledge yesturday with my little brother, i noticed that they're IT department was using Paint Shop Pro, what are your feedback about the program since ive alwaysed used photoshop.

I was looking at the program and ive found that photoshop have more effects and more tools but some say that the work on paint shop pro is of a better quailty.

I am usin Photoshop from a long time now and I am very happy with this soft. I have discovered GIMP, this is an Open Source graphic soft exactly like Photoshop. It's Open Source and there is a version for Linux and another for Windows.

we have the gimp at our colledge and well i habent used it much but i found it difficult to use, but so was photoshop when i first used it.

im pretty sure paint shop pro is used because its cheaper, and not superior. currently it seems photoshops biggest turn off is its price, and nots its performance. either you want to pay the photoshop price for all its bells and whistles, or get something similar to photoshop for less or even free. personally id rather use photoshop, but thats just me, but i'm not going to knock someone for saving a few bucks and using a different program.

i find that photoshop has more extensions (e.g. brushes) than any other plus most tutorials are on the software photoshop

Anyway, I recommend you all from all my hearth GIMP

the first image editing software i ever used was PSP, some young version.

It's pretty good but no match for Photoshop. I think Photoshop is the image editing standard now.
Gimp is pretty cool but doesn't have that many options as photoshop.

It doesn't really matter what software you use, your talent and dedication is important

cheers

I love photoshop and choose it simply because it's the best you can get. It's also the industry standard software for print media related businesses for a reason.

I have some 00ber PS graphix I should upload here sometime for a laf.
