Jasc has once
again proved it was possible to turn and improve an already outstanding
program into a better one. This new version 7.0 of Paint Shop Pro brings
tons of enhancements, which were long desired for some of them, and is
more web-oriented than ever. The program remains easy to use and keeps its
orientation of the midrange graphics market: Paint Shop Pro 7.0 is still
one of the best picture editing programs after Adobe Photoshop. Paint Shop
Pro doesn’t fade at all when you compare it to PhotoShop. Overall this
affordable software is probably the most complete, feature rich you can
find out on the market even if it’s not always intuitive to use. So if you
do a lot of picture editing or if you plan to do so go grab a copy of
Paint Shop Pro 7 to have the ultimate graphics toolbox at your fingertips.
