The once-cluttered UI now features a straightforward, sleek interface that offers more automatic options for the most common photo-editing and organizing tasks. Novices will rejoice about the new Learning Center that provides clear instructions on the tool they're using. Unfortunately, to install the trial version and test Paint Shop Pro's powers, you need to create a Corel account on the company's Web site. In return for registering, this program offers about every tool you'll need for illustrating and perfecting your digital photos. Besides the standard assortment of drawing implements, you'll find such new additions as the Smart Photo Fix and Makeover Tools.

Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo XI delivers a complete set of photo-editing tools to help you create professional-looking photos fast. By combining automatic photo fixes and precision editing controls with a revolutionary Learning Center, Paint Shop Pro is a first of its kind--an easy-to-use photo editor for anyone who wants stunning photos.

Pros: Paint Shop Pro 11 is a great photo editing program. I was able to create way more artistic photo templates than with Photoshop Elements 4.0. I will never go back to Photoshop after this. Paint Shop Pro is way more user friendly and the tools available are great and are all I need for my professional photography business. I highly recommend Paint Shop Pro 11 for professional and advanced home users.

Pros: I use Paint Shop Pro since a long time and it changed very much, since the program belongs to the Corel. Much became better, some worse. The felt speed during operations is now again much better. Thats really important and good! The user interface and handling is enormous better than in former times. The number of supported formats and processing options is impressive. One thing is clear ... if someone wants to use all functions, a certain learning expenditure is necessary. But that is necessary with all programs of this kind. The conversion succeeded thereby very well and this is very important for all (new) users.
