Paint Shop Pro a-likes

[Pek2]

Hi

I hope this is the correct forum to post this in . I was wondering if any of you could help with advising me on what photo/picture editor behaves most like Paunt Shop Pro 6/7. I only need to use it for a week or so at work so if there are any shareware products out there I would love to know. I especially liked the layer possibilities PSP offered .

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

I'm assuming your PSP trial ran out?

I'm pretty sure Adobe lets you download an evaluation version of Photoshop 7.0, which is the top of the line editing program at the moment.

Yes, and Photoshop has a much better layering system than PSP7. Not too mention a smoother, nicer look.

Ulead PhotoImpact 8 was rated the best budget image editor of 2002 in PCUser magazine. I am sure they will let you download an evaluation copy of it.

Yes they do, but it will take you more than a week to work out even the basics of Photoshop.

If PSP is excellent (to you - Pek2) than Photoshop is definately overkill. Every image editor just about should have a layering option, if not they obviously suck.

Cheers guys

I have tried Photoshop before and found it a bit overkill for my needs. I am not really doing anything especially difficult it was just I was used to PSP and wanted something similar.

I got PhotoImpact and it seems to be OK actually. I dont really know my way around these things that well and PhotoImpact seems relatively simple.

Cheers for the help
