There are a couple of awesome filters in the market that are not compatible with PSP, but again, there is always a work around for the same effect. Photoshop on the other hand has a steeper learning curve I also feel that the editing tools and effects are scattered and hard to locate.Īlso, most of the filters I use are compatible with both programs. I have acomplished complete Photoshop tutorials using work arounds in Paint Shop Pro with complete ease. It also includes a variety of very useful editing tools and you can pratically find a work around to any Photoshop effect in Paint Shop Pro.

Paintshop Pro is fairly simple, when it comes to editing graphics or editing photos. To begin with, Paint Shop Pro is much more user friendly than Photoshop. Looks like a great place so I am really looking forward to getting more aquainted with the site and wonderful community.Īs a continuous user of both Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro I have encountered pros and cons in both sides.as with any other software. I am new to the forum and Design Contest. Now Photoshop users, what are you gonna say?
#Corel paintshop pro vs adobe photoshop how to#
I just learned how to edit (all kinds of edits) in just one month. Well, I recommend Paint Shop Pro because it's so easy for me to edit pictures that Photoshop. X4 takes this even futher, unfortunately. X3 is slightly unstable, and lacks the quick and easy usability that previous versions had.
#Corel paintshop pro vs adobe photoshop upgrade#
My upgrade path ended at X2, after being a fervent supporter since the mid-90's.

The only caveat to all of this is that Corel sortof lost sight of why PSP was so popular. Working with PSP/CorelDraw is SO much faster than using Photoshop/Illustrator. One thing that stands out though, is its ability to generate 100% original artwork in an absolute snap. As a photo editor, it is more than capable of corrective work, and with the ability to use PS plugins, I have just as much creative control as the Adobe user. I do both graphic design and commercial photography, with a few weddings here and there. Have I ever found myself in a situation that would need that sort of power? Not really. Every new CS version of PhotoShop, I make it a point to download the trial and see if there's anything new that could possibly justify the cost, and I've yet to find it.
