Need help with photo program

16 years ago

I have "zoner" and Adobe Photoshop 4.0 and I don't like either one of them, hard to use. Can anyone recommend a better and easier photo program? Regards, p.k.

I use Microsoft Digital Image Suite 2006 - I am trying to learn Adobe Elements 5.0, but Digital Image Suite is SO much easier, and does just about everything that Photoshop Elements does.

Microsoft is no longer making the program, but you can still find it. It is really easy to find on eBay, and inexpensive also - I have seen it for $35 or less.

There are also free ones out there like Irfanview and others....but I find that Digital Image Suite (DIS) offers a little more than those.

DIS has tutorial videos built into the program - those really help. And there are a few sites that have great tutorials available.

I use Paint Shop Pro. I find it to be so much easier to use than Photo Shop. I have tried the trial version of Photo Shop some time ago and found the learning curve very high and comparing it to PSP it seemed very similar just harder to understand. I do have Adobe Elements 5.0 installed and fool with it a little, but still go back to Paint Shop Pro.

what program or method to use to print 4x6 photos
Q

The only way I know to print 3 4x6's on a letter size page (8.5x11) is to print 2 vertically and one horizontally and to set up for printing you need to be able to place and rotate the images. I can do that in PaintShop Pro (print multilple images), PageMaker (place graphic), MSPublisher (insert picture) and probably any of the card making type softwares. The key is being able to rotate the image. Success will also depend on the minimum margins your printer will allow. Group the 3 images together in the center of the page and you need .25" on left and right and .5" top and bottom. For my HP the bottom margin is larger than the top so mine would be .25" top and .75" bottom. Jill

Are you on Mac or Windows? I use iPhoto for almost of my editing - it does just about everything that needs doing: cropping, levels, effects, etc. Also what kind of camera are you using? My Nikon Coolpix can do a number of those things right in the camera. Oh hhah - just noticed the date of the OP - imagine the class is over now...

Thanks for the response. Nothing is checked and everytime I try to check anything it will not stay checked. This program is totally messed up for some reason. Gallery will not work at all. I deleted all of my pictures and reloaded the 2 memory cards I have. They did load pretty much in the order I took them but some still I have to look for. At least it didn't sort them the way "it" wants too. BUT Now I can't plug the camera in to load pics, it will only let me load by putting the memory card in the tower. It was always so easy to just plug it in before. Now that feature is messed up too. Another thing, it use to show pictures full screen and now it only shows them about 90% of the screen. I can enlarge to full screen but it has to be done on each pic I look at. Before they all were full screen without doing anything. Soooo frustrating! I don't know what happened to make this program work so bad. No kids or anybody messes with this computer but me. Thanks for your help. Nancy

Hey, did you keep the instructions that came with the opener? If not, have you located the model number on your opener? It probably starts 139.--- . Hey, have you done any search on your own? The first place to look for a helping hand is at the end of your arm. Here is a link that might be useful: Remote
