Product Description

Manufacturer's Description
Upgrade pricing is available to customers upgrading from previous versions of Paint Shop Pro down to Paint Shop Pro 4 and Paint Shop Pro Studio.

Corel Paint Shop Pro is the all-in-one solution for photo editing, organizing, sharing, and creativity. You will get tools for making your photos look just the way you want, organizing them so they are always at your fingertips, and making photo postcards, calendars, and more--advanced enough for a pro and easiest enough for a beginner. Version X is the best Paint Shop yet, with run times 50% faster than previous versions, more teaching resources (more than two hours of tutorials) for you to easily get the most out of the program, and 500 special effects.

Fix brightness, colour, and photo flaws
Now you can have sharp photos filled with brilliant colours. You don't have to be a photo-editing whiz to get fabulous photos. Paint Shop Pro is filled with easy one-step fixes and advanced ultra-precise controls so no matter what, everyone can have the photos they always dreamed of.

Cover All the Basics
Everything you need to complete the most common photo tasks. Quickly rotate, resize, and crop photos to get the exact composition and size you need.

Fix Any Photo
Smart Photo Fix is the best way to correct colour, exposure, and lighting problems. With a single click, Paint Shop Pro analyzes your photo and makes suggested corrections. With this powerful, flexible tool, you can change the corrections to suit your tastes.

Improve Photos in One Step
Most digital cameras produce some sort of noise and, in photos of high-contrast, a purple fringe can appear. We know these are common problems that plague everyone, no matter how great a photographer they are. With the One Step Noise Removal and One Step Purple Fringe Removal, Paint Shop Pro quickly gets rid of these pesky problems.

Instant Makeover
Looking great has never been so easy. None of us are perfect, but with Paint Shop Pro X's Makeover Tools everyone can look like they are. With this handy set of tools you can remove blemishes, whiten teeth, brush on a suntan, and remove wrinkles. It's so fun and easy that you'll just have to try it for yourself.

Get the Red Out
Red eye is probably the most common problem facing photos. With Paint Shop Pro X you get a One-click Red-Eye Remover that even works on pets, or you can use Advanced Red-Eye Removal for the most accurate corrections.

Remove Distractions
With the Clone Tool and the Object Remover you can get rid of distractions in your photos by just clicking and dragging.

Adjust in an Instant
When the photo you have doesn't look like the photo you thought you took, you can easily Adjust Perspective and Straighten crooked photos to get the look you were after.

Restore Old Photos
Tears, holes, and fading are no match for Paint Shop Pro's photo restoration tools. With Scratch Remover, Fade Correction, Hand-tinting brushes, and High-pass Sharpen you can repair and restore any old or damaged photo.

Add a Creative Touch
Paint Shop Pro X includes all new Picture Frames and photo Edges for when you want to give your photos a little something extra. Plus, there are NEW Picture Tubes, this popular feature is the easiest way for you to add ready-made art elements to your photo and graphics projects.

Photo albums and more
Once you've used Paint Shop Pro to make your photos look their best, you can jump to Corel Photo Album 6 - Standard Edition included FREE, to create fun Greeting Cards and E-Cards. With the drag & drop simplicity of Photo Album you can create and send cards for every occasion.

Turn photos into elegant projects
Once you have fabulous photos, don't let them sit there on your hard drive doing nothing. With Paint Shop Pro you have all the tools you need to create everything from fun greeting cards to breath-taking collages.

Turn Ordinary Photos into Something Special
Creating beautiful Scrapbook Album Pages and sophisticated multi-picture Collages is a cinch. Now you can just drag your photos into professionally designed templates and have stunning photo keepsakes in moments.

Fun Projects You Can Complete in Minutes
Enjoy your photos all year long by using them to create your own Calendars. Or show the people in your life how much they mean to you by featuring them on Magazine Covers or Award Certificates. Plus you can print multiple images on a single sheet of paper using Print Layouts and create your own CD Labels.

Remove Backgrounds
You can cut people out of photos and drop them onto new backgrounds easily with the Background Eraser. This handy tool makes combining multiple photos a breeze.

The Selection is Yours
With so many selections to choose from you're sure to find just the tool you need in Paint Shop Pro X. Use Freehand/Smart Edge Selection to find your edge or select it yourself, the Shape Selection to square, rectangle, circle, or elliptical shaped selections, or the Magic Wand Selection to make selections based on colour, hue, or more.

See What You're Working On
Layers are the building blocks of any collage and now you can see exactly what you're using in your collage. With just a glance at the All-New Layer Palette you can see all the layers in your image and what each layer contains.

You Get to Pick
Move and resize elements of your image on the fly. The Pick Tool is the easiest way to make adjustments to layers without having to re-select them.

Give photos a unique, exciting look
Your photos can be so much more than just ordinary pictures. Using Paint Shop Pro's graphics and effects tools you can transform photos into paintings, add words, create crazy caricatures, and so much more. With so many effects to use, you can have hours of fun just experimenting.

Say What You Mean
Add Vertical or horizontal text to photos or even have text follow a path. With the Text Tool, you can choose how you want your message to appear.

Turn Your Photos into Paintings
With real-life Art Media Tools you can turn your ordinary photos into masterpieces. With an easy Trace option you can trace your photos using Oil, Chalk, Pastel, and more. Plus, you can choose from different brushes and canvas types.

Draw with Precision
Adding arrows, talk bubbles, stars, and other interesting shapes to your photos couldn't be easier. With the Symmetric Shape Tool, Pen Tool, and Preset Shapes you can add all kinds of fun to your photos without any work at all.

If you like, you can jump right to Paint Shop Pro with a couple of keystrokes. The Photo Finder automatically finds and organizes your photo collection by the date you took the picture, and Photo Trays are a virtual photo to-do list - helping you remember to e-mail or print photos.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worthwhile upgrade, 19 Dec 2005
By Mr. L. Williams "les-williams" (Exeter) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)      
I've used Paint Shop Pro since version 5. It has always had powerful features but hasn't always been the easiest to get to grips with. I upgraded from version 9.
A lot of worthwhile improvements to make it a lot easier to use. Particularly nice is the fact you can browse your photos in a window at the bottom; each tool now has a tutorial that helps you along. The makeup tools are good fun...whiten teeth, remove wrinkles and blemishes and apply a suntan......Worth the money

5.0 out of 5 stars Terrific value image editor and creating., 2 Nov 2005
By Mr. Andrew Moore "lord derfel cadarn" (Worcestershire) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
I've used Paint Shop Pro since version 3 and seen it grow from a simple shareware image editor to a true rival to Photoshop (I use both). OK, it aint as advanced on some tools as Photoshop but at a fraction of the cost its super. Its easier to use than its professional rival thanks to somevery intuitive tools and a lot of processes that require a simple click of the mouse whereas Photoshop has far more user control and so is perhaps more versatile. A lot of professionals are using this software now so thats a sure sign that its good, home users may find the learning curve rather steepbut there are lots of good help and tutorials built in and many books out there to teach you at your own pace.
If you want to create original artwork from scratch, this can do it with both bitmap and vector tools. If you want an image editor, again this can do it. If you want an electronic darkroom, it can do that too.
Remove scratches, red eye, blemishes, adjust colour, hue, saturation, work in layers to composespecial effects, use masks... the list could go on.
If you've got a previous version then the upgrade is excellent value for money, if not, the full retail edition is also good value (considering Photoshop is around £600 and does similar). Wheather its worth upgrading from version 9 is another matter, it is faster and the pressure sensitivity works very well from my graphics tablet which it didn't before. It looks more like typical corel software rather than the Paint Shop Pro we know from old.
All in all, a good package, well worth learning.

3.0 out of 5 stars Dodgy print quality, 17 May 2006
I have used PSP since version 7, and never had any problems, so I upgraded from V.8 to X. It is still very capable (Smart Photo Fix is amazing) and the new learning centre is useful. Corel have made the interface more attractive than Jasc.

However, when it comes to printing within PSPX, things go downhill rapidly. The software seems to resize the photos to the size of a postage stamp on the preview screen if you select "Print" from the tool bar. You have to select File>Print Layout to get it to work.
And the interpretation of the colours is very inaccurate. A picture which is perfect on screen comes out of my printer (Epson R300)very dark and gloomy. My monitor callibration is fine because other software (including my old PSP8) prints perfectly. I have to edit with PSPX, and then print from another program.
Unfortunatly, this means I really can't reccommend this upgrade.
