"The BEST Photoshop Alternative on the market!" on by pinerj
Pros: Simple to use, easy to imprort from multiple sources, EXTREMELY stable, can handle harger files with ease, and it's also very cheap for the features included
Cons: There is no trial version
Summary: I work at a University and have been teaching a training workshop on this software suite for about a year. I have yet to have 1 complaint. It's really that simple.
This program comes with a TON of upper level digital editing tools that even the most die-hard Photoshoper will appreciate. You can do everything from removing red eye, to applying filters, cropping, resizing, organizing, applying filters, and a whole host of other options.
I personally actually went out and purchased this program on my own even though I already have access to Photoshop CS2 through work.
Bottom Line: This is a great product that is worthy of more respect than the low price asks for. -
"Easy to Learn and Use" on by mjarmstrong
Pros: Easy to Use and Learn
Cons: Slow Openning
Summary: Received this free with Publisher. If you are familiar with Microsoft products, and like how they are set up you will love this product for photo editing. Allows the user to make one click image adjustments or to tinker with different color and appearance levels individually as you become more familiar with it.

"For the beginner and the Pro who needs to be efficient" on by gerund
Pros: Simplicity
Cons: Needs a dual window for comparisons
Summary: This is a powerful program with a simple efficient interface. For those who make a living handling a large volume, it can't be beat. Most pros cannot afford to spend a lot of time retouching. They spend most of their time shooting. You don't need to be a photo retouch specialist to use this program. This is a program that will allow you to spend more of your time shooting rather than trying to figure out how to retouch.

"Very basic" on by tirlty
Pros: Ease of use
Cons: Not as good as basic photo editing software
Summary: Typical Microsoft software, (other then OS and Office). Rather expensive for such basic photo editing options. When any adjustments are made to photos they look fake or washed out. Very limited. Photo Story is nothing much. Loaded 577 photos, program can only handle 300. When music added, there is no option to fade in or out when photo #300 displays, everthing goes dead. Made a test CD and the quality of playback on DVD player was poor to say the least. Default photo time is 5 seconds, with transitions, the photo is just seen before it fades away. Need to set each individual photo for viewing time. The Picture It software that came with my Nikon camera is a much better editing program. I was looking for software that would make a slideshow with ability to set batch transition and viewing times. This is not it! Returned to store and got money back. Tried XP movie maker first and that was a joke also. Any advice on an excellent Photo Slideshow program with unlimited ability on size of slide show, batch transition and batch vewing times?

"easy to use with good results" on by Rambosden
Pros: Easy even for the novice, auto fixes work fine
Cons: Not a lot of special projects with it.
Summary: I have used their products for awhile. For fast touch ups, croping, auto fix it is very good. I also have Digital image pro and picture it 10 by microsoft and they all work fine/
