Also in this program there is an "effects" section where you can add 3D effects such as
buttonize chisel cutout drop shadow inner bevel
Art media effects (for example brush strokes and black pencil) Artistic effects such as aged newspaper and coloured edges. Many distortion tools aswell where you can pixelize your pictures and pinch and punch them. There are different edge effects and gemometric effects such as circle and scew. Illumination effects where you can have a sunburst and lights on you pictures. Image effects such as seamless tiling.
God, i could go on forever there is so much included in it i found that the "help" section in this package is very helpful too this is where i learn some of the stuff along with some tutorials i find on the internet.
The gif, jpeg and png features also make it easier to save in the format you wish and also preview what it will look like once you have saved it for example sometimes when you save in gif the picture changes and the colour fades or goes completely different colours, with this you can change the settings of the file formats to fit the way you want your picture(s) to look.
You can download a free trial from www.corel.com, it is highly reccomened from me that you try before you buy because if you don't find the program easy to use (which in my opinion it is hard at first but after a whiile the layout and the features become easy to use) or not the right program for you, you will be spending £100 !!! but if you enjoy editing photos and making graphics this is the program for you!
