0 Keldyn Posted February 18, 2002 Share Posted February 18, 2002 Photoshop. Personally i find PhotoImpact a little too unwieldy.Never could get use to it. Does have some nice effects however which is why i still keep it on my system. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 neo1980 Posted February 19, 2002 Share Posted February 19, 2002 Photoimpact will dominate the editor market in a couple of years cuz it is developing very fast, the interface is much easier than Photoshop and even though it doesnt have much features, speed vise and learning wise, its the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You actually think that photoimpact is going to dominate? hahahah I'm going to break a rib. It doesn't matter if the interface is easier or not its the "doesn't have much features" thats going to hold it back. Well that and the fact that photoshop is the industry standard and has managed with photoshop elements to bring a cut down version to the masses.

0 bartheq Posted February 21, 2002 Share Posted February 21, 2002 Photoimpact is great for simple web graphics (like here - under construction) and quick image editing cause it loads 5x faster than Photoshop and is generally faster when you use it but when it comes to more complicated projects Photoshop is perfect (e.g here - just a project) so everything depends on what you want to do:D I use PI6 & 7 (depends on which one I lauch but I like 6 more:D) and Photoshop 6.

0 DigitalResource Posted February 21, 2002 Share Posted February 21, 2002 Bleh in my class at school we argue about this a lot. I myself am a photoimpact user because it's easy to use and has a more attractive interface than Photoshop, and by the way photimpact has some website tools integrated, and loads of presets. Things you want to build in photoshop take loads more time than in photoimpact. Some think thats lame but oh well, why choose the hard side :ermm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 TheForce Posted February 22, 2002 Share Posted February 22, 2002 Wicked you seem to suffer from the same mentality as all M$ minions. Never is mighty powerful word....Only time will tell. I prefer PI7 because I can create web graphics fast and get on with life. Which is how long it takes to master PS. :) cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is how long it takes to master PS. :) cheers. first off im not a M$ minion cos i also use osx thank you very much. If you want to sit around and wait for photoimpact to become the graphics standard thats fine with me but I've got better things to do with the next 50 years of my life.

0 unspec Posted February 23, 2002 Share Posted February 23, 2002 You really think that an editor that doesn't fully support CMYK modes is going to dominate the image editor market? :roll: You must be joking. -- unspec Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
