Review by Colinda

I used the previous version of PaintShop and liked it AFTER taking two short courses to learn it. It does a lot of cool things but is not simple. However, this version has an Express feature that does not have the steep learning curve, so anyone with software experience can do basic photo editing.

That said, my tool of choice is still Photoshop. It also has a steep learning curve but once you are used to it, it’s great. On the other hand, there are some fun tools in PaintShop and I would use it more often if it were available for my Mac.
