I love editing and making pictures in the JASC Paint Shop Pro programs.  I used to use Paint Shop Pro 7, but switched to Paint Shop Pro 8 after a good friend of mine recommended it.  At first, I loved the program.  I was able to organize better and do more.  The program looked nicer and I was able...

i have used Paint Shop Pro for years now and I could not be happier! It is easy to use, and the variety of which you can create, is emmaculate. Although it uses alot of memory, that should not persuade you into not buying it. For any graphic designer/editor, from amatuer to advanced, this is for you.

Paint Shop Pro also gives you a help section, with step-by-step instructions!

I have been using Paint Shop Pro 7 for a long time now. I recently upgraded to Paint Shop Pro 8 and I must say there are some major improvements to the new software. The navigation features are much easier to use, and using the image effects tools is much more fun. Since buying this product I have found myself doing more graphic design each day.

Great program! If you are a graphics designer, photographer, or just enjoy messing around on the computer this is the software for you. This is the best photo-editing software I have ever used. My husband is an amateur photographer and I use PSP to edit his work. It is easy and fun to use! I could not live without this software!

I really enjoy using Paint Shop Pro 8.0. It has more to offer than its previous versions. The program can be a bit confusing or even overwhelming to new users, but it does provide a few good tutorials to get you use to using the different features.
