*INTRODUCTION*

I thought I would write an opinion on this software as I have been currently using it now for a few months. Paint Shop Pro (psp) is used by many people for different reasons, I use psp for the following things, making email signature tags, graphics, stationary, and also websets for my webpage. Psp is a addictive program that once you start there is no stopping you.

*WHAT IS PAINT SHOP PRO?*

Paint shop pro is a software program for imaging. It is excellent for doing the following things: colorizing images, editing and resizing images, adding borders/frames and text to images, adding effects, and more. There is so much you can with using this handy software, and is so enjoyable to use. You can also make your own images here with the draw tool so there is no need to use paint program that you can get with windows, although I have not yet use this tool as I am no good at drawing.

Psp is like a toolkit for artists, there are so many tools you can use for getting the effects you want to create. There is also many free downloads for you to get such things as plugins, gradients, tubes, brushes, etc for your collection for psp. Psp is very enjoyable and hours of fun here within this little program.

You can also animate your images, for this though you would need to download the free addon of animation shop which you can find here at www.jasc.com it is amazing what you can do with this program.

*USE OF PSP*

This program can be very difficult to the eye and also to the mind. Although when I first started using psp and still to this day I just mess around in there, it is amazing what you can do when you just having a mess around. There is also sites out there that will help you with any problems you might have with using this program. But once you get used to it and what things do then your away and having fun.

*DOWNLOADING AND INSTALLING*

Psp is easy to download and install. Just c

lick on the link, then follow the required instructions, this free trial only last a few days so when it runs out then your choice to buy, or just uninstall it and never return.

*AVAILABILITY*

You can get the free trial from www.jasc.com or you can buy it from any computer stores or online from places like ebay and amazon.com.

*PRICE*

The price is around £70 to buy, which yes it is expensive but very worth it in my opinion.

*FINAL OPINION*

I get a lot of enjoyment from using this program, and I would not use anything else now. This little program is stable and is ideal for people that enjoys creating and designing.

Enjoy reading :)
