I concur: I got Corel Graphics Pack
for C$149 which includes PhotoPaint 6 (SIX...),
thinking it would "take care" of my PC photo needs
for a while.
And there is not much this software cannot do.
PhotoPaint 8 is much more expensive, but even
more powerful.
PhotoShop 5 is real heavy but the professional's
standard option.
A magnificent PC shareware is the PaintShop 5
mentioned by another correspondent, available on
many magazine CD-ROM and by download from the
makers at:
http://www.jasc.com
about 15-20 minutes download, fully functional.
In Macintosh, the standard "shareware" is Graphic Converter,
very popular: I wouldn't spend a day without it.
Enjoy yourself.
