I heard PS was better than PSP. ^^;; Anyway, I was just wondering what you guys thought between the two.

Paint Shop Pro isn't so bad. I had a 30-day trial version and it is a good cheaper alternative to Photoshop, even if it doesn't have most the powerful rendering tools and options found on PS CS.

But I prefer PS for th eoptions, the intergration of ImageReady, GoLive, and most Macromedia products.

I would prefer Photoshop. I used Paint Shop Pro when I first started and then moved to Photoshop. Paint Shop Pro isn't bad at all, it is very similar to Photoshop but to me, Photoshop is a lot better.

i prefer photoshop better than i do psp. psp is kinda like ps but more confusing. i started out with that n it got me so frustrated but then i switched to ps which is a lot easier to use

photoshop is what is used in more professional environments as opposed to psp... i`ve been using psp ever since i began doing this stuff 5 years ago and i`ve never turned my back on it, haha.... but lately, i`ve been depending on illustrator for my design needs, which is similar to ps, so i dunno o_O.... but between those two? my heart will always belong to psp.. how cheezy.

Photoshop has better and more features than paintshop pro, but I like using Fireworks from macromedia, or FLASH MX

Photoshop OWNS.

translation: psp = noob shiznit o;

At first I started with PSP6 when PSP7 was out, and then my friend gave me PS7. I used that of course and am still using it to this day.

i used PSP before when i just started out. but now i use PS and it`s way better if you wanna actually learn creative things. when i used PSP there were brushes that are already made for you and you download them and what do you create in that? people have similar things if they use PSP. well usually.
tha1nonly
well i like both.
PSP- is very easy to manage.
PS- has more options, better burshes, quality, ect.
i use both of 'em for my doll site. :)

photoshop is definitely the best editing graphic editor out there. unfortunally, it's very complicated to use.......i can't do anything with it unless there's a step by step instruction on how to do something. i'm more comfortable with macromedia fireworks...getting the simple projects finished easily.
Mr. Xplicit
photoshop all the way ;]

I actually think both are good. I own both and I use Photoshop more for my xanga and PaintShop more for my animations.

I prefer Paint Shop Pro.

I got Adobe Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro in Vietnam, its cheap there. One U.S dollar is about 15,000 D there. ^^ You can buy a few tins of candy, a haircut, or something equal to that with a dollar there. ^^

I like Paint Shop Pro, because it's pretty easy to use and you can find what color code things are and you can also undo as many times as you want. You can't on Photoshop, at least on version 5.0 you can't. I have Photoshop 7.0, but my computer is Windows 1998, and you need Windows 2000 or higher to install it. _dry.gif

I use PS, but I've never used PSP before. I want to try it sometime, to test it out. I have both PS CS and Imageready CS.

I like photoshop better. PSP makes me mad.

dakoreanchick
I prefer PS over PSP but sometimes PSP's tools prove more helpful in some situations
sharerol

Puahaha. 47 votes for PS and 8 voted for PSP. :P
xxlroxygurllxx
i have both PSP and PS but i had PSP a lot longer than PS. to me PSP is easier to use but you can't really do a lot with it. PS is a bit confusing for me but they have a lot of brushes that look better than PSP. i usually download brushes for PS and transfer them to PSP. hehe.
sheepy
well i had both. and currently im using PS. yeah its quite cooler than psp.
sweetxsimplicity
Yeah, PSP is really good and easy for beginners, and even though PS is a bit harder to get used to, you can do a whole lot more with it.
KrunkMuzik
Def. Photoshop! There's WAY more customization available. PSP is good if you're on a budget.
swe3txprincesz
this is an old topic. well anyway i think ps is soo much better than psp...i have both but ps is better!
