 Corel needs to go awayApr 22, 2010
Corels customer support absolutely blows. The software does not support the raw files for my Nikon and it is impossible to get an answer out of thier automated support.
If you buy Corel Software make sure you can get your money back. I am stuck with a pile of something warm.

Corel has rendered this product unusable. Time for PhotoShopFeb 26, 2010
I have to agree that since Corel took over, this product has gone downhill. I've used PSP since version 5 and the problems have really gotten worse with X2. Going forward my only choice is to get PhotoShop.
I've experienced the crashes and slow performance other people have mentioned - especially after the 12.01 update. My initial issues were the program complained all the time about paths not being found. Contacting tech support didn't get me far beyond the "use this utility to uninstall the app and follow these instructions." Initially, this seemed to work. But this was a false sense of security because the problem would appear again later on. Then it got worse. The app started crashing when I tried to use certain common functions - like Paste As New Selection!!! This rendered the app unusable. So I went through uninstalling it, deleting all registry entries and folders --- AGAIN! A reinstall seemed to work. Then I applied the 12.01 upgrade, and it's back to crashing. This time it's crashing before it even get to the application! The app has been rendered totally useless.
So once again, I'll do the uninstall thing and reinstall the original from the CD and not install the upgrade.
Heed this warning: DO NOT INSTALL the 12.01 upgrade! This seems to be the downfall to making PSP completely unusable.
Hopefully I'll be able to continue using the 12.00 version until I'm able to get PhotoShop.
 Good if you have the time to learn it.Feb 24, 2010
I bought Paint Shop Pro because the several other photo editing programs I use didn't do quite everything I needed. The reviews (on PSP) were good, the price was right, so I bought. And, it does seems like a quality program, "if I only had a brain"...!
I really don't want to spend the hours learning this monster. Everything I try to do is a project, even when the same thing can be done on my other programs simply and logically. (Throw logical out the window.)
Actually, I think the PDF manual is pretty good but when you can't understand the manual, you're screwed. No Corel tech support unless you pay for it on a per-call basis.
As a result, even though I've probably spent 5 hours with this program, I'm still struggling. I haven't used PhotoShop, I suppose it's the same way.
So, I'm not saying it's not a good program...just that it's not being a good program to me.

Coral Paint Shop Pro Photo X2Feb 06, 2010
I found it to be exactly as I expected it to be. It was new as was described in the description. It arrived very quickly and I was able to start on my project right away. Thank you for your excellent service.
