 Rating:  - Complete GarbageI have been a Painter user since 1995. I started out with version 3.1 on a Mac Quadra 700. Painter has gone through a few owners in its lifetime. It started with Fractal Design. It then went on to MetaCreations. Then Corel bought it and has magically transformed a once reliable, stable, intuitive art program into a crashy, overly complicated pile of junk. I'm running 9.5 on an intel Mac Pro and I cannot believe what a nightmare this thing is. Unfortunately, I cannot run my old ... Read More Rating:  - Works Well At Many LevelsWe have used the Painter software with a Wacom pad for many years. It has been a reliable and remarkably intuitive program that can be used at many levels. My wife has used it professionally in her work, and wouldn't be without it. Our focus has been more in the area of painterly fine art, and it is in this category that Painter has been a stellar performer for us. We used Painter V for many years, but when it wouldn't install on Windows XPMCE, we upgraded to this version of Painter. ...

Try entering those words, or variants, in the online help. Nothing. They can't even be bothered to put that in. Cynical isn't the word. Slow too, on my powerful Mac. AND - the image changes its magnification - size on the screen - randomly!!! No other program does that on my computer. A bug, perhaps? You get a feeling from software, from Corel's home page, from other sources: I don't like it, and won't buy ... Read More Rating: - COREL HAS THE WORST SUPPORT!Great program, support is Crap! Some are lucky and it is a fun program but if you have any issues with your system or program you're on you own! Corel support is a black hole no matter what you put in nothing comes out! Rating: - Great Potential, Serious Issues and Lousy SupportI did like this program. There are shorcomings. The selection tools are nowhere near as good as what Adobe supplies but it offers some options that Photoshop doesn't have that are really useful for one who combines natural drawings with the digital medium. Then, for no apparent reason as I do a file save every few minutes, it crashed. And it destroyed a file that I'd worked on for a week. There's 128k left (out of about 35MB) and I can't recover it. I phoned customer support. Their recording ... Read More |
