i have been a PhotoPaint fan for a long time, and just got Photoshop CS. I will still use PhotoPaint, but i want to learn the more 'widespread' of the two. Anyone know any ways to make the switch easier... http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/confused.gif

Hi Ben ... welcome to TalkGraphics.
I too have used (and still use) PhotoPaint for many years. But like you I finally gave in to the fact that Photoshop offered much more versatility. My only advise is to find as many tutorials on photoshop as you can and work through them. It's an alien world out there in Adobeland ... and you're going to have to learn to walk all over again http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/wink.gif
A search on GOOGLE for "Photoshop Tutorials" will yield more than you will even want. I'll leave you with a couple of links to get started.

Good luck ... and make sure you post one of your new creations in the "NON-XARA GALLERY".

Not sure about Photoshop being more versatile? I've not seen anything it can do that Photopaint can't... http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/confused.gif

2 Eagle Imagery:
I guess you were not really looking.
Photopaint is a geat tool as far as creativity is concerned, and ease of use. More humane, I guess. But when it comes to prepress and DTP. there really are lots of things that my friend Photo-Paint unfortunately cannot do.

Actually, I have already tried.
See "DTP", "prepress" if you're inclined to pursue this subject. I am quite certain that it can do just about anything to meet your particular needs but that doesn't exactly mean it can do everything and for all situations. (same goes for photoshop).
With due respect to photo-paint, from a photo-paint fan since version 5.
Best regards.

PS: perhaps, I should have used "quite a few things" instead of "lots of things". Anyway...

hi
i used photopaint since version 5
and it was a real threat for photoshop
but lately -- the development of it is very slow due to the company problem with money
anyway - i still use it -- but looking at photoshop new features --- you can tell that we are really losing a lot of smart features that found in photoshop cs by sticking to photopaint
i am like you -- all my job is done by photopaint -- but i can not ignore the features that CS offers
i wish that corel spend more money on it is app's
