Summary: Stick with Paintshop pro 9 if you can get it
Comment: This version offers little more than version 9 and is far more memory intensive. I Bought this directly from Corel and have been unable to even activate it as it just hangs. The help is hopeless and I have removed this from my PC and am looking to get a refund.
As I say in the header get Corel Paint Shop Pro 9 [OLD VERSION] which was one of the later ones before Corel ruined it

Summary: Corel service is terrible
Comment: I used to have Jack Paint Shop Pro 9 which I upgrated to Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo X2.
I like the software, but it leaves dregs all over my screen. I have searched their database for help on this matter and they mentioned a graphic card that need driver updates, but it was not mine and my driver is current (I tried an update). Although I can use PSPPX2 on my machine, it is not pretty because it messes up its outer border and surrounding windows.
There is _NO_ way to get in touch with Corel. I have an account and tried email, but for some reason my account does not work. I tried creating other accounts, but they don't work either. Their web site gives no phone numbers for contact and you cannot email Corel unless you have an account which I cannot enter or create.
Based on this experience, I would very much recommend not doing business with this company unless you are absolutely sure their products work on your machine and you will not need support (I am not addressing their pay-for support which is an unknown entity, but their free email support).

Summary: Overall a wonderful product
Comment: This software has great effect filters that make for wonderful results, however my wife wanted software with red-eye reduction filters. Although this does have red-eye filtration, it is not automatic, it is very tedious to use, and gives questionable results.

Summary: PSP XII
Comment: I have all the PSP/Corel Porgrams... I sure do like this one and got it for about half the price that Corel is offering it.

Summary: Great program at an even greater price!
Comment: I'd been thinking of purchasing that "really expensive photo program" (Adobe PhotoShop) so that I could work with my photos in RAW format.
I've been using PaintShop Pro products for many years, and hated the idea of learning a whole new photo program. Paint Shop has always been quite user friendly without the need to spend hours and hours learning how to work with my photos.
I googled "RAW format + Paint Shop Pro" a few months ago and found this product. I'm more than happy with it and I'm glad that I don't have to spend tons of time and money learning a new system of working my photos.
I went to a photo shoot this past weekend and was able to download over 2,500 RAW format digital photos in no time!
Don't let the low price fool you - this program has a lot of capabilities. It's well worth it to try for those who especially don't have the time to take a class on how to work with PhotoShop or try to decipher the instructions in a book!
