anyone own Paint Shop Pro XI

[reflectionsbyruth]

I just downloaded the demo version of PS Pro XI and wondered if anyone else has used it or even version X.
It seems to have a good color management process, 16bit editing and also RAW support. I use Capture NX for converting RAW and some editing but need something cheaper than PS CS3 since I cant afford $1,000 ++ for software.

Any input appreciated

Well... I have used it during 4 months and is nice... but not excellent! So I have to use other software, like Adobe Lightroom.

With the 2 softwares I can edit, retouch and make Web Galleries

Thanks, I user Nikon Capture NX to do most of my adjustments but small things like printing greeting cards, dust spots on images, and downsizing images to for the web and placing my signature on it before I upload is my major use for a program like PSP XI and printing which is why I dont want to spend $1,000 + for PS CS3 nor can I afford it.
I have ACDSee Pro for organizing and dont really care much for Adobe Lightrooms organizing software.

Anyone else use PSP XI?

I use X and love it. I've been using it since version 4. I like the recordable scripts and scripts that come with the program. It also uses photoshop plugins

it uses PS plugins? can you show me how?
Only because I purchased some PS plugins and would love to use them on PSXI

I havent tried the scrips yet, what exactly do you use them for?

Thanks
