All the fun of Photoshop at one sixth of the price
"Adobe Photoshop runs in at nearly six times the cost, with six times the complication and with most features balancing out. If you’re not six times the idiot, you’ll know which product to go for."

"Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo X2 is the perfect picture editing software for ambitious digital photographers. Regarding picture retouching and post-editing, the programme is nothing short of the “big” and considerably more expensive Photoshop. The tools are practicable, easy to use and user friendly in every sense. For beginners the Express Lab and the learning center are really helpful. For professionals, it is a real joy to use the tools for HDR picture creation and the extended RAW picture support."
Summary Score: very good (86%)
