PS vs PP8

Does anyone else here ever use photopaint 8? I was just wondering because I haven't seen any posts on using it here.
I still use it after 11 years and I like it a lot more that PS or PSP or any of the other "new" software out there today, it has all of the features of the newer software and a few that have been left out of the new stuff, and some of what they have left out is stuff I like to use often. I have PS and PSP and I do use them on occasion, but PP8 just seems a lot nicer to work with, more predictable and has a more user friendly UI. It also saves in a lot more formats than the others, and it saves files in the formats the others do as well.

Just wondering why it isn't used by more pro's still... I guess the software companies need to make a living too and if everyone knew about this old software and had it, who would buy the shiny new crap they are trying to push?

An old friend of mine is very good with PSP. I loved his tubes

His last visit was last month so I know he still lurks around a bit.

Honestly though I've never even heard of Photopaint.

it's a corel program, I hope you have heard of corel, they did corel draw and a few others along the way. and it even works on my 64 bit machine. that makes it nice.

here is a site that has a review on it... lol look at the date it was written

Wow, that's an old review. Nearly 11 years! .

Wow.

It's actually strange to think Ozzu has been around for 6 and a half years too.

Awe I remember that now. Man I haven't messed with Corel since about 1997. No wonder I didn't remember that. I seem to recall it came on a few floppy disks.

lol Well mine is on a CD at least... way ahead of it's time!
