Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Usable by the beginner, but packed with plenty of higher-end features for the expert, Ulead's PhotoImpact delivers an impressive image editing tool with excellent support for Internet graphics. Whether you want to edit photos and put them online or create original Web graphics and animations, this economically priced package offers an appealing mix of power, with an interface that's truly easy to use.
As a standard image editor, PhotoImpact offers an impressive range of capabilities. You'll get a good range of drawing tools and photo retouching abilities. The tool excels in letting you add digital effects to scanned content. In testing, we were able to handle basic photo retouching easily, as well as experiment with a wide range of graphics special effects and filters. We liked the support for creating text effects here, a must for Web page graphics. (The product bundles with hooks to Digimarc's digital watermarking so you can add watermarks in your image files before distributing over the Internet.)
Get control of prepackaged artwork using the convenient style gallery feature, which makes it easy to preview and make use of the bundled photos, clipart, and textures in your own creations. Generally, we found the interface here to be easy to use, with many basic features conveniently placed for beginners, and plenty of advanced functionality to explore for expert users willing to go a little further.
When it comes to the Internet, this new release of PhotoImpact really shines. First, the product lets you create custom Web graphics (like original graphics buttons) easily. You can optimise the size of Web graphics for faster downloads, and the support here for creating GIF animations is good. When you are satisfied with your artwork, the product makes it a cinch to export it to HTML. A wizard offers the ability to create virtual photo albums and slideshows with just a click of the mouse, a feature that will be appreciated by the more casual user. We also liked the product's ability to import existing Web pages. (The product can read over 30 types of graphics files, making it a flexible performer.)
In all, PhotoImpact is a well-designed graphics software package that will let almost anyone be productive with photos and original graphics on the Internet. --Rich Dragan, Amazon.com

5.0 out of 5 stars
A vital tool for every artist or craftsperson,
This review is from: Photo Impact 7.0 (CD-ROM)
Photoimpact is a very wise investment for artists of all kinds - new, experienced, young, old, amateur, professional. It can provide you with hours of creative joy every time you open the program.I discovered this program through my interest in digital art. I began to notice that sites with fabulous graphics often recommended Photoimpact - usually in preference to Paint Shop Pro - sometimes in preference to Photoshop, the so-called graphics industry standard. This product deserves all the superlatives bestowed upon it. It's no coincidence that it has won so many respected awards over the years. I think the best way to describe what it does, and how, is this - it does everything you expect Photoshop to do, but in a fraction of the time, and in a fraction of the number of steps. It does more than Paint Shop Pro can, and to my mind has a much more logical, user-friendly interface. You can make buttons, banners, rules and backgrounds - in a snap - all optimised to teeny gifs and jpeg files ready for the web. You can make your photos beautiful with one click - there's even a setting to smooth skin blemishes away! The program is a wonderful tool for the craftsperson, but a workhorse for the professional graphic artist, too. Even very advanced tasks, such as composite imaging and mask work are achieved quickly and give expert results every time. This version boasts a wonderful new multi-print engine. I have a good quality colour printer and my family presumed they were looking at actual photographers proofs - the results are that good. Also new in version seven is the remarkable Z merge tool. You get to make or combine impressive 3d images. I can't think of any other program that enables such complex processes to take place in milliseconds. There's no waiting around for graphics to render - it is instantaneous. Astonishing stuff. The last version of Photoimpact was weak on colour accuracy, something that has been sorted out in this edition. So for me it's now perfect, and it deserves five stars. I'd give it six if I could! There is a strong community behind the product, so support is readily available for all kinds of Photoimpact queries while you are learning. And you get to exchange professional tips once you have mastered the basics. Friends, fun, opportunities for financial gain. What more could you want from a piece of software?
