Question re Best Basic Software Package
I am new to digital photography and have just begun to experiment with
editing etc. I understand the Adobe Photo Shop is the best software package for editing, but I think that is expensive and probably a lot more than I need. I basically just need a "quick fix" feature, and a automatic red eye fixer, plus a bit of cropping capability. One feature I would really like to have is the ability to remove a spot like a pimple etc and copy over that with a nearby colour - from elsewhere on the face, for example. Could somebody recommend a good basic (and inexpensive) package that would do all this? |

Adobe Photoshop Elements. Basic version of Photoshop. Works quite well as
long as you don't need to severely edit a photograph. "Robin MacNab" wrote in message om...

There IS a 'learning curve', so be ready to invest some time in learning the basics of editing. |

JASC's Paint Shop Pro. Version 8 is current and version 9 is in beta right now - it includes red-eye removal and some new noise reduction tools for digital camera use. Very friendly user support forums (newgroups) as well. PSP9 beta is a free download so why not give it a try? http://www.jasc.com/community/beta/pspdownload.asp Cheers, David |
