2 out of 5 stars corel x2 23/07/2008   July 23, 2008
installed having read & matched the spec req,downloaded trial version
it looked good wanted to transfer raw files which it did then the whole programme froze up!!
Its a pity these programme companies dont sell a very basic version that is simple & fun to use,try to contact corel within there website well it would be easier to knit fog!
If u want a fun and simple to use programme then this is not for you



1 out of 5 stars Disappointing   June 23, 2008

I had used PSP since version 4. This one is the first since Corel took over and it will be the last. Apart from "gloss" there is little or no more functionality than there was in version 9. Corel support is useless - they will (it says) only support technical issues on a fee paying basis. They are supposed to support installation issues, but my question about the registration nag screen appearing although the product is registered has not been answered (except for the auto acknowledgement. There are much better imaging editors out there for comparable or even lower prices.

I have been a long standing user of PSP but once Corel got thier hands on it it's all over.
PSP was a byword for effective, efficient and inexpensive photo editing software. Now it is none of these. Bloatware springs to mind and not cheap either. Do yourself a favour and find an old copy of PSP 7 it will do everything you ask and it will even run off your USB stick.
If you reaaly want to spend the cash, spend it on photoshop elements 6 or save your pennies for a few months and go for the full photoshop. Corel Photoshop is just waiting to drag your system down

I bought Paint Shop Pro X2 a couple of months ago to learn how to make drawings on my computer and to touch up and edit photos.

+Paint Shop Pro X2 was quick and easy to install and use. I have not had any problems with it freezing or crashing yet, either.
+I am still 'new' to it, but already I have made drawings I am proud of. (There are plenty of online tutorials to show you how - just do a search.)
+The grey background is smart and easy on the eyes. Important, if you are spending a lot of time working on an image.
+There are many interesting and arty effects available. (I especially like using the 1970s style from the Time Machine on my photos, for a warm, 'vintage' look.)

Not much else to say from me, except if you too are thinking of buying an image editing program, but don't want to spend too much, I would strongly suggest Paint Shop Pro X2. :)

I am running this on a 2 year old PC with a 2.8Ghz processor and 2 Gb of RAM and it runs fine. Before buying, I downloaded the trial version of both X2 and Elements 6 and chose to go with X2. I felt that Elements 6 had vastly superior Raw processing capability but once you got into Tiff/JPEG work, it imposed too many limits on what I wanted to do. However, Corel definitely need to get their act together on Raw processing - they are behind the curve on this aspect of image processing,hence only 4 stars Other than the Raw issue, I am very happy with X2 and think it is excellent value.
