Adobe Photoshop CS2 review

Advantages: The best photo editing/graphic software you can get!
Disadvantages: The application takes time to load + it may take a little time to get used to.

this is the best computer graphical program ever! Do you really want to know why? Yes, I bet you do! Simple answer; Because I can use it! I am hardly computer technical and I hardly have a good knowledge on using computers but for me to be able to use it comfortably when photo editing etc and to result in high quality outputs really does say something! Firstly I got this product for free from a friend who lent me the disk to use. I shall be honest, ...
...hate is the time it takes to load the application. However when first opening the application it was highly confusing and remained this way for a few weeks until I got used to the icons and tools. For example, the magic wand tool is a tool which is used to select all pixels on the image which are similar or the same to the pixel you had originally clicked. Since using this product for over 2 years my skills have increasingly developed through my ...

Advantages: Creates realistic people posers
Disadvantages: some parts of it can be complicated

...I brought my copy of poser 6 off Amazon uk it was £120.00 so i had to use my birthday money to cover it ,a little worried at what i had paid i hoped i was going to be able to use it ok. It took over a week to arrive bit when it did i was really pleased,the installation info was straight forward and on my laptop it took just over 1 hour to install but my laptop is quite old so this is probably the maximum. Whe the first page came up it was a little ...
...tutorial so i took the poser tutorial on the sotware,i learnt how to move my charecter and how to render it,(put all the adjustments onto my dummy),i still have a awful lot to learn to get faces looking real and i need to learn how to grow hair on my dummy but on the whole im really pleased with what this program does even though i wont be using it for animation,i do think even though £120.00 is lower than the rrp it was alot for this product but ...

Photo editing made easy for non-techies

Advantages: Impressive results, easy & quick for beginners
Disadvantages: Some tools are harder to find

I have been very impressed by how easy and intuitive this program is, compared with other photo editing packages. I teach beginners how to use computers and have been searching for a photo editing program that is easy to use. This fits the bill perfectly, giving excellent results with just a few mouse clicks. The Common Tasks bar down the left hand side of the screen makes it easy to change the exposure, lighting, size of picture etc. also a really ...
...Drag around the object you want to remove, not too closely because you must enclose a piece of the background that you want to use as a fill in, eg to remove a bird in the sky, make sure your selection includes a bit of sky all around the bird, then click Fill In and the bird disappears, replaced by a clone of the sky. There is a conventional clone brush but you have to look in the menu to find it. There is a good range of fresh-looking frames to ...

For those of you, who are not familiar with the expression of vector-drawings: The drawing is basically described by start and end points of individual lines and not by colour dots that builds a complete ...
