įrom 2006 to 2011 (versions XI to X3), PaintShop Pro was marketed as "Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo". PaintShop Pro X7 includes content-aware features such as "Magic Fill" and "Smart Edge" as well as support for XMP sidecar files that preserve edit settings for raw formats. PaintShop Pro X6 was the first to be available as a native 64 bit version (purchase includes both versions). PaintShop Pro 5 added support for layers as well as CMYK and HSL colour modes, included JASC Animation Shop for creating animations and in fact was marketed as "Paint Shop Pro 5.0 with Animation Shop".
Most newer versions are only commercially available although some have been distributed in the United Kingdom in computer magazine CDs after they became obsolete. Paint Shop was originally distributed as shareware and is still available at many download sites (4.12 being a popular version).
It was released by Robert Voit in August 1990. Originally called simply Paint Shop, the first version, 1.0, was a basic picture converter between BMP, GIF and PCX formats, conceived by Robert Voit and developed by Joel DeRider. Most Photoshop alternative's selection tools are tedious or do not support many languages and other advanced features.Paint Shop Pro 1.0 (pictured here running on Windows XP), was released in 1992 for Windows 3.1. If it is a text tool, a selection tool, complex languages (since in every country there are many other languages that exist and are unavoidable). Photoshop alternatives are thousand miles behind. If it no longer has the ease of use advantage, then only the occasional Humble bargain would be a sellingpoint for it, and the better question would be how it compared to GIMP.Ībsolutely wrong since Photoshop is a true professional tool. But, that was back when it was still JASC Paint Shop Pro 7, no idea if the better interface is still it's primary advantage, since, anything PSP can do, PS can do too anyway. Photoshop had more features, but PSP had all the features I needed in a more obvious layout, with less need to learn all kinds of shortcut keys to circumvent ten-layer menu trees. I used to find the user interface of Paint Shop Pro way more intuitive than that of Photoshop.
