Call it what you will, the application remains an excellent choice for those seeking Photoshop-like powers at a Photoshop Elements price... Printing professionals will want to stick with Photoshop, and those in search of a versatile editing/organizing/sharing solution are better off with Photoshop Elements. But Paint Shop Pro Photo XI retains the formidable image-editing power of its previous incarnations. The product nicely fills its distinct niche as a robust program for beginners and experts alike, offered at a very affordable price."</i><br /><br /> <img src="http://www.digitalmediathoughts.com/images/PSPP.jpg" /> <br /><br />For $99, Paint Shop Pro Photo looks like a killer deal. If you're looking to step up from what you're currently using (*cough*Picasa*cough*), or are hesitant to spend the money on a more professional program, PSPP XI is one you should definitely look at. PC Mag's review is rather brief, but gives you a good idea of what to expect. And again, for $99 you really can't go wrong. Anyone here a PSP user? Wanna share your experience?
