(What's this?)
If you are looking for a basic photo shop type tool, then this could be the one for you.
I would recommend this to anyone who wants to do basic touching up of photos and who has got into digital photography.
This comes with a really good manual which goes through how to use each part of the software (the manual has about 375 pages). It shows you how to create your own calendars and greeting cards (very useful if you are short of cash or just want to give a unique gift/card).
There are so many things you can do to your photos, you can do the usual creating a slide show, turning your photo into a pencil drawing or an oil painting or an expressionist painting etc.
You can even morph your photos, so you can go from you in the first photo to a turnip in the last!!
I loaded the software in and even got rid of a chicken pox scar on my forehead in about two minutes, so you can quite easily touch up pictures without too much trouble.
It is one of the easiest photo manipulation pieces of software I have used. And like I said before, if you have just got into digital photography or computers, then this is the software for you (mainly as it is really cheap and easy to use).

(What's this?)
I was extremely impressed with this software - after playing with it for 5 hours that is: this is absolutely NOT something you can pick up and play: even the simplest tasks are tricky to get used to; but once you do its fantastic.
I wanted to make a funny card with my friends faces pasted over the heads of a football team: after a few plays, disasters and re-loads, it looks fantastic.
My personal favourite "trick" is removing the backgrounds from images with one just two or three clicks: want a bright blue sky behind a photo of you on a cloudy day? No problem: dont want the white halo you usually get when chopping photos and copying onto a new background? You can eliminate that too with yet another 2 clicks. I think if you figured out all the tools you could probably knock up some "magazine" quality photo-edits; you can do the standard photo shop stuff of getting rid of red-eye - but you can also remove grey hairs, freckles, whiten teeth or rub out a specific area in a photo and have it look pristine and untouched.
Of course this inspired me to then dig out some old photographs that had become damaged over time: you know, scratches, creases, torn corners: just scan them in and the software cleans them right up and makes them look good as new.
Now, the reason I dropped a star is that the potential of the software is, for most people, going to remain untouched: why? Because the manual is literally an inch thick with nearly 400 pages of size 8 font type: thats a LOT to wade through if you dont want to professionally use this software. The "help" system I found very unintuitive and dificult to fathom: you type in a help topic as per most software, but unfortunately the help assumes you already know enough about editing to skip over certain parts - it took me about an hour of trial and error to fix my problem instead: fair enough I got there, but I know a lot of people would be put off with this.
Also its not immediately clear (again, a series of faffing) that if you want to use a part of an edited photo (ie something you want to delete a background from and put on a card etc) you have to export it; you cant just save it and assume it'll behave like a normal jpeg.
In short - fantastic for the pro - I mean a really awesome tool - but for someone like me who just wants to brighten up photos or restore tatty old ones - maybe a more user friendly manual or help guide is in order.

Amazon Vine™ Review
(What's this?)
I am an enthusiastic amateur photographer on a budget. I use a decent, high-end digital camera, though not an SLR, which takes nice pictures. I have used Photoshop a bit, and find it useful if not terribly user friendly.
Photo Explosion takes all the bits of Photoshop that the average user will use most often, and packages them in a nicer way. Image touch up, calibration, 'airbrushing' etc are all there. It also allows more advanced techniques like morphing, which is good fun. Pictures come out looking pin sharp. I haven't used it for printing yet, as my printer is on the fritz, but I expect it will be easy to use as the rest of the programme.
Recommended for those looking for a more straightforward solution than Photoshop.
