For the moiré below: Create two layers with a thin grid (line width: 1px, grid: 2px) over a transparent background. Pretty much all the photos I have posted on this site were resized and tweaked with PSP, and they look fine to me. Moiré happens when you mix two regular patterns with close spatial frequencies (or close harmonic frequencies). I'm happy with what I have too, and I'm not going to spend the price of a DA*300 f4 on a piece of software which gives me a very small advantage over what I have. You're happy with the product (presumably) and what you can do with it. Anyway, you're welcome to your opinion, of course. Photoshop is not just a bit overpriced, it's ludicrously overpriced. If I was going to spend $1000 I'd rather buy a new laptop or a new lens, not a photo editing program. Like I said-there are things I LOATHE about Adobe (e.g., pricing)-but Photoshop stands alone as the standard for image editing, and using it is a great way to learn and practice the fundamental concepts involved in digital imagery (channels, application of mathematical formulas to change the look of things, etc.)What can it do that I can't do with Paintshop Pro? More importantly, what can it do that I'm actually likely to want to do, which I can't do with PSP? At the moment I'm more interested in taking good photos than spending a lot of time trying to make a poor photo into a good one with Photoshop or any other editing tool.
