Why couldn't Pablo Picasso or that French dude Serat ever make interesting Impressionist paintings like this? ;)

If someone needs to do something impressionistic, they just use PsP.

Life sucks:(

Nah, I think the TRUE artists still use their own skills, not with PsP of course.

Post by: CP5670 on March 21, 2002, 09:45:08 am: heh, I have the exact same thoughts, but pro-PSP. :p IMHO Photoshop's interface is utter crap, the program is very slow and the only functionality it has over PSP is more filter effects. Not to mention that it costs eight times as much. :p

Post by: KillMeNow on March 21, 2002, 10:41:20 am: i used both psp7 and photoshop 6 cause photoshops blur tool is complete sh*t and it doesn't seem to have a screen capture system which sucks - so between the two i manange things

also got to point out that psp7 can recognise 5 times the number of file formats photoshop can

You got that right......

Post by: CP5670 on March 21, 2002, 11:34:05 am: For myself, the only reason I have Photoshop installed at all is the filter effects, which can come in handy every now and then. ;) I pretty much use PSP for everything else.

Post by: aldo_14 on March 21, 2002, 12:49:55 pm: I use both. PhotoShops burn and airbruhsing tools are execellent, and much better for texturing with :)

Other than for that, though, I prefer PSP

Post by: Setekh on March 22, 2002, 10:37:07 pm: PS can do all sorts of cool things with clouds/difference clouds...

Apart from that, bah. ;)

Bah? Not all of us have a rendering/paint proggie with ultra-super powers, you know...
Myself, when I want to use Photoshop stuff, I use The GIMP :nod:
BTW, anyone know the difference between Photoshop Elements and Photoshop?

Post by: CP5670 on March 23, 2002, 12:57:01 am: I basically use it for the various filter effects; the spherize one can come in handy when trying to make planets and such from 2D maps and the difference cloud one that Setekh mentioned is good for nebulas. ;) For drawing, coloring (yes, I sometimes edit an image by modifying indivudal pixels :D), texturing, and the like, PSP is far superior though.

Post by: Setekh on March 24, 2002, 12:37:46 am: My main criticism of PS is that it's clunky. The darn thing took ten minutes to load on the (not exactly modest) workstations at school. And then it took a few years to load up the palettes. No thank you...
