Corel did not kill the software. They have developed it further and it's
their flagship photo editor.

Paint Shop Pro might not be completely dead, but 'developed'? Nah, a few
minor things have been added and the rest has been so dumbed down it makes
me weep.

I thought that was Symantec. I hold a wake every time they buy something.

I still use Paint Shop Pro 5. Later versions just never added anything I
wanted or needed.

PSP 8 is when vector capabilities were added.
Version 9 was pushed out in a hurry by Jasc, to make it more attractive to a
buyer (Corel).

I was part of the version X beta-testing group. Corel did still listen then.
(version XI was never tested)
I use PSP(Photo) X2 - (spent 4 months intensive beta testing - sadly Corel
didn't listen to a thing we said, so if was somewhat buggy).

It's now up to version PSPPX2 Ultimate, meaning they fixed a few bugs, added
an external background eraser plugin and a 2GB USB stick!
In between all that, they fired the development team.

It was a sad/bad day when Corel bought PSP.

Like the quote with your sig. must borrow that some time

I still use PSP9, and it's excellent. Seems to me ver. 8 had some bugs
that 9 fixes, and for what it is, it's just about perfect.

Any idea whether 9 will work in Windows 7? It works in Vista, although
it turns off Aero, and I've heard there are some printing anomalies.

I would think if it works in Vista, it will work in W7, which is Vista with
bells on (nice bells they are too)

IMHO Windows 7 is what Vista should have been like in the first place...

Running Win 7 Ultimate, 64-bit here. PSP 9 (with the two follow-on
updates, 9.0.1 and 9.0.1.1) also turns off Aero, but other than that,
runs just fine.
