Answer 2

It's a very capable program. What your asking wouldn't be too tough to accomplish with saturation adjustments, a little highlighting and some texture cloning.



You can find lots of good tutorials for various effects with the program.



Try the free stuff first though, there are a lot of really nice free programs out there. photoexpress gimp paint picasa etc if you can save a hundred bucks and do what you need, why not? ^_^

Answer 3

yes it is... any paint program can be great... the first thing to remember is that the program is only as good as the artist. There is teens on here wondering why when they use photoshop it don't look like the professionals that been doing artwork for decades.



Look at some of the photoshop tutorial videos online for making skin beautiful. Then you'll see some of the background it takes to do good artwork. Another great source is looking at make-up techniques

Answer 4

PSP XI was a major revision of the program and had a number of bugs. That's why version X2 came out so soon. PSP is a good program. I use it. But avoid XI and get X2 or X2 Ultimate instead. There are plugins (addons) that are wonderful for adjusting skin tones. The best one (and it's free) is Virtual Photographer.

With PSP it's easy to install, too. Just run the exe file that's downloaded to your desktop and install it in the Plugins folder that is in the My PSP folder that is in My Documents (Documents in Vista).

picture taken during WW II shows all around st Paul's burning and then the magnificent dome showing above the rubble. The British people worked hard to save ST Paul's and Prince Charles and Princess Diana got married there in 1981.

Answer 6

Ewww!



My wife's Vista Computer had it bundled - IMO it's, well, not good.



If you want a nice free editor that runs pretty much anywhere, try Paint.Net (You have to have at least SP 2 if you have XP, though). Others like GIMP, but it's not to my personal taste because Paint.Net is more like Photoshop.
