Pros/Cons
  • Pros

  • Photoworks is very user friendly and easy to figure out and the videos are extremely helpful. I also have had GIMP a long time, which is a very complex graphics program.
  • I really like the photo effects. Customer support is very good.
  • Cons

  • AWFUL!!! Until I hear back from someone TODAY about why you took my money without allowing me to download the program!!! My project is due by Wednesday.
  • I have found nothing to this date that I dislike about the software.

  • Pros

  • If your Use to Photoshop, you will learn quick and is easy to integrate.
  • GIMP is easy to use and integrate into your business as an alternative to Photoshop for certain media projects.
  • Cons

  • The toolboxes are not integrated into the main window; this makes it difficult to visualize the image to work.
  • In terms of drawing tools, it is very minimalist to the point where buying a tablet that senses the difference in pressure applied on the screen is useless.
