Availability og Paint Shop Pro 5.01
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
I have used and get a lot of mileage out of Paint Shop Pro 5.01 .Higher versions 8.0 and 9.0 have more bells and whistles but for day to day task 5.01 is more than adequate. I am having difficulty in getting the write up for Paint Shop Pro 5.01. Like most of Paint Shop Pro 'help'. They give the bare information. Why don't they run the user through a typical Paint Shop Pro task that one encounters in the real world. Consider it the best of all the graphic programs. Also XP OS versions of Paint is excellent and use that often.
This Dummy Found It Useful :)
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
Paint Shop Pro 8 For Dummies by David Kay helped this dummie a good bit :) . Being a "Newbie" to Paint Shop Pro 8 I was totally lost. This book starts with the basics such as downloading your pictures to the more complicated such as turning a photo into a painting. It has been a great help to me. The reason I am giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is that I have found it lacking in the one area I purchased it for and that is simple photo editing. Several tools and techniques are not explained in detail and/or not at all. But overall if you are a novice to Paint Shop Pro 8 as I was you will find it more than beneficial.
Excellent tutorial

I clung to version 5 of Paint Shop Pro for years, and when I upgraded the new version had a lot more "stuff" available. This book walked me through it, taught me tricks I'd never learned before, and generally made my life much easier. Entertaining and informative.
A Great Book to Take the Next Step with PSP8
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
This book has a thorough overview of PSP 8. Plus, it takes you step-by-step and in plain English through some advanced features. I have bought two other books on PSP 8 and have used PSP 7 for two years. This book is better than the other two and a keeper!
