0 Prasanth Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 If you're an advanced photographer and don't have Photoshop yet or if you need natural paint tools, version 7.0 is a must-have; otherwise, version 6.0 will do the trick. http://www.cnet.com/software/0-429627-1204...04-8918085.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 BroChaos Veteran Posted July 1, 2002 Veteran Share Posted July 1, 2002 ps 6 loaded in about 15s, ps7 in 4. that's reason enough for me. although, psp7 loads in about 2, so when i just need to do easy stuff, psp7 is my default image editor.

0 pixelpixel Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 I wish they had 6.5 :) 6 has its good points and so does 7. But 7 does have that little extra kick to it. Go ahead give it a try.

0 Dfresh321 Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 "healing" in PS 7 is a sweeeet! new feature. New version runs better in XP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 nomis_nehc Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 how about the idea of just being updated? lol, anyways, I would go with what other members said. Photoshop 7 is better :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 sailgreg Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 7 Loads about 2 times faster then 6, thatis the main reson I got it :) It does look nicer to :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 analog chainsaw Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 PS7 is nice, but it seems to bog down my machine a lot more than PS6. Seems like a major memory hog. Anyone else have this problem? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone else have this problem? Yeah, as a matter I do too. I put it down as a crappy-something on my system (see the sig, it's nothing special). I still do prefer PS7 to PS6 though.

0 analog chainsaw Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 You can set your Undos higher, but it's memory dependent. So the more the have, the more resources it's going to take away from other things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Gurm Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 PS7 is MUCH faster than PS6. Going from PS5 to PS6 was like stepping into a puddle of molasses... PS6 was SO bulky and SO slow... PS7 is much faster. Back in line with what PS6 ought to have been. Now the question is does that speed boost outweigh some of the questionably good changes that have been made? - Gurm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 sailgreg Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 Originally posted by deron dantzler ps6 vs ps7 vs ps elements.... i'd take ps elements over all of them... I prefere Elements to, it is easier to use and can do just as much :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 BroChaos Veteran Posted July 2, 2002 Veteran Share Posted July 2, 2002 i thought elements was just a slimmed down version of PS, no? and what are some of the "questionable" changes that they made? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Arckon Posted July 2, 2002 Share Posted July 2, 2002 I prefer PS7. It starts up faster and runs faster. The plugins seem to run slightly faster as well. I only have one complaint about PS7 though. I can't use KPT3. I can use all of my other plugins but there appears to be some kind of compatibility issue w/ KPT3. Whenever I invoke one fo the KPT3 tools and then hit the ok or cancel button, PS7 appears to lock up on me. Does anyone else have this problem w/ KP3? BTW, I am running XP Pro w/ 512 MB RAM.

0 Guest deadzombie Posted July 3, 2002 Share Posted July 3, 2002 Both 5.5, 6 & 7 are better than 4:P Scripting, better vector text and super brushes all make 7 superfly cool, not to mention the new GUI icons...pretty tool panel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
