I've used it quite a bit. Overall I like it. One of the big comparisons between it and photoshop is the price. Remember that full price photoshop is $600+. Quite steep for my blood. PW Pro is $90. On the plus side, it is one of the few programs that fully support color management. It is also more geared toward a photographer rather than a graphic artist.
If you already own Photoshop, I really doubt there is anything in PW Pro that would make you want to switch. If, like me, you have not sprung for Photoshop at this point, it is worth considering. I have been using Photoshop Elements for quite some time, and one of the biggest things lacking in it is "curves". This is present in PW Pro as are some perspective correction tools. PW Pro creates a new window for each edit process. About half the time I hate it and half the time I love it. When I want to try two or three different edits and compare them, then the multiple separate windows is very nice. Just switch between them. But when the edits are simple and I don't want to compare, then the extra windows are bothersome. Overall I like it and can recommend it. Like I said, if you have already purchased (or are willing to) Photoshop, it is probably not worth the bother, but if not, this is certainly one of the top contenders. -- Best regards, Bruce Saturday, January 3, 2004, 10:47:20 AM, you wrote: SB> Hi gang, SB> It was suggested I try PW Pro.
