• A basic program for editing pictures

  garfieldgurlSeptember 2, 2009

  Pros

  - Easy to use - User friendly - Does what you want it to do in a very simple way

  Cons

  - Crashes when cropping. Had to hit crtl+alt+del to be able to close it. - Can't use backspace to edit the resolution number. You have to highlight and rewrite.

  Summary

  I use this program because it is faster to load than photoshop when I just need to quickly resize or crop a picture. However, when I'm cropping and trying to resize the crop window, that's when it fails and a window pops up and keeps coming and coming until I have way too many windows to click "ok" on that I just use ctrol+alt+del to close the program and stop the windows alert noise from driving me crazy! It's a shame because I really like this program and I used to use it a lot before this crashing started happening. I had version 2.0 and thought that by downloading the newest version, it was going to be fixed. Boy was I wrong...

• Not enough options

  DanaNicole76May 10, 2009

  Pros

  The things I like about it are already incorporated in Picasa. However, it does do everything it claims to do.

  Cons

  Not enough options. It lacks in better more advanced ways of editing photos (and I understanding this is not a high priced fully loaded program).

  Summary

  Honestly I prefer using Google's Picasa (great program) and either Gimp or PhotoShop Elements. Picasa is free however Elements will set you back a bit (not nearly as much as the full highly professional versions of regular PhotoShop but pretty darn close the same.

• Program crashed within minutes of opening !

  juliaatcnetNovember 20, 2008

  Pros

  Iniatially the program looked great but as soon as I tested the crop feature I had to stop testing because of the crashes.

  Cons

  As soon as I selected a crop range, it immediately went into a continuous loop of program crashes which would not stop until I used Task Manager to kill it. So I have to remove the program as this has never happened to me before with software.

  Summary

  Looked good for the few minutes I saw it. Wish I could have had a chance to check it out properly before the crashes. May re-evaluate if a new version comes out.

• Easy Download and Instatllation

  mtsf45September 15, 2007

  Pros

  Easy interface and the Screen Capture function works great!

  Cons

  Edit functions are too limited. They could have included cropping, deleting and resizing. Lastly, Slide show should include a Manual Option.

• A basic, easy-to-use picture display program

  PicManFebruary 15, 2005

  Pros

  Easy to use. Nice "tip of the day" feature. Mouseover to the left of the view pane and you will see one of the best displays of picture EXIF information of any similar program. A nice set of picture "effects" is available (crayon, mosaic, add noise, etc).

  Cons

  No Help (nothing happened when I clicked on menu selection Help). No pan or zoom. No audio file capability. No meaningful picture captioning. No picture transition effects. Limited picture editing ability. Improving the English would improve readability.

• Fast navigation with clear images

  December 22, 2004

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  I use this as primary browser/viewer even though my final edit is in PSP or Photoshop. You can quickly review pictures and test lighting, color, sharpness and many other effects. New version adds important functions like rotate, crop, and redeye. I only wish it would directly load image into my editor.
