I have Perfect Photo Suite 8.5, will these work with this software? It says to use jpeg, no psd, but I don't know if tiff will work.

Your Photo Suite must have the capability to select and eliminate the unwanted background and then replace it with the desired digital background. I have not used your particular programas I use Photoshop so not sure about that. jpeg and tiff are both compatible formats but psd is only used with Photoshop. Hope this helps.

Hello Mike, This is Clive from EZbackgrounds. I had not worked with PhotoSuite in a while, so I took some time to download the new version and test it out to see if it was more compatible than previous versions. Much like Corel PaintShop Pro, PhotoSuite does open psd files, but it does not support various elements of the PSD format such blending modes, effects, text and other elements of the PSD format. Therefore, I cannot recommend it for use with this package that includes frames, actions and other items intended specifically for use in any version of Photoshop. However, PhotoSuite will work with the backgrounds as they are in jpg-compatible tiff format which is fully supported by PhotoSuite. We have a backgrounds-only package available on Amazon that will work perfectly with PhotoSuite. It is the "Premier 100 Digital Backgrounds Package". Enter "digital backgrounds in the Amazon search engine and it should appear as the second item listed behind this package. Although my research was limited to an hour or so, I did find PhotoSuite to be a little buggy. It crashed on me three times while using it. I should note that it could be something particular to my computer configuration that is causing the bugginess and not necessarily something that everyone will experience. For the reasons stated above, I would still recommend Photoshop Elements for use as an alternative to the professional CS and CC versions of Photoshop over any other program I've seen thus far. I hope that helps. If not, or if you have any other questions, feel free to contact us anytime. Best Regards, Clive at EZbackgrounds

Yep, it woks great for me in Windows 8. It actually works better than in Win 7 because it doesn't flicker when starting up, since it wasn't Windows Aero compatible. PSP9 is still a great photo enhancer, I still use it today. I wish Jasc was still creating it.

Marsha:I am working with Windows 7, 64 bits and works fine; however, I am a photography fan, and I got a strong frustration with the quality of the converted files. It is something like 5 Mega pixels.For that reason, I bought a 20MP converter. I will receive it next week. If you have any question, please do not hesitate in contacting me, I'll be glad to share my experiences.Best regards, Ricardo

I have Elements 5 and Paintshop Pro 8 (and 7). All are very good, but the emphasis is different. I use Elements for processing my DSLR photos using the included Adobe Camera Raw. It is reasonably easy to use and the quality of the results is excellent. I use the PTlens plugin to correct for lens defects and Elements works well with this. I very occasionally like to use a feature that Adobe has left out in order to avoid competing with full Photoshop. Examples include Curves adjustment layers and fully automated batch editing. In this case I switch to Paintshop Pro, which invariably does have the missing feature. If you don't know why you would need these features, you probably don't! I don't use the built in Organiser, because I started using Picassa (free from Google) for this purpose and I see no reason to change. For design work, such as web design, I would personally choose to use Paintshop Pro, because its feature set is more complete, (Paintshop Pro 8 is roughly equivalent to Photoshop version 6), and because those advanced features are more easily accessible. Other people that I know would choose to use full Photoshop instead, and I can understand their point of view. Photoshop Elements needs quite a powerfull (i.e. new) computer, if it is not to seem slow. I understand that this is also true for the latest Paint Shop Pro. Finally, you can download both of these products for a free month's trial, so why not try then out and make your mind up after that?

I use mine as a plug-in for photoshop. Not sure if you can use it with Lightroom. Not sure if it works as a stand alone. You can get on Topaz's website at topazlabs.com and email them. They are really good a getting back with you quickly. I really love this software. It takes a little while to learn how to use it but I love the results on my photos. I hope this helps.

Sorry not exactly sure what are the requirements for photoshop software you will be using, certainly this is an i7 4Gen laptop, should be able to run any programs on it, if you are currently using a laptop and you have used the same applications with that many pictures and works fine, then with newer models you shouldn't have any problem. We would also recommend to find more info online.Thank you,

I use the SPP (sigma) software to batch convert files to .tiff, then Lightroom and/or Photoshop to finish. If you're in a hurry to do *anything* quickly with the Sigma DP cameras, you aren't going to be happy. If you don't mind using a tripod and only using in ISO 100-400 conditions, however, be prepared for amazing and beautiful photos."Iridient Developer" is another (the only other, AFAIK) software that'll process the Raw .x3f files from the Merrill sensor.

Don't know what you wanna know....but I've been using PICTURE IT for many years and completely satisfied compared to the newer "photo" programs. If you can find a copy and load it into a system that will accept it....good freakin' luck.

It is compatible and does work with previous versions of printshop. The problem I found with it so far is that it does not allow you to make tables and does not permit you to acquire scanned photos directly. Both were part of previous versions. I find transition from earlier Printshops is much more complicated. The format has changed and has more moving parts which is time consuming. I kept version 23 on my other computer which is much easier to use. I am trying to return 3.5 but have had no response after filling out return form. Bottom line I am not happy with 3.5.

I would use googles picassa free software. it works great and it's free!no you do NOT have to use the camera software, i never have and never will. besides with winkflash who needs to print photos? winkflash (or other web based services) will have them for you in a few days or overnight!-costs more for that. quality is great and price can not be beat! it's usualy .06 per print (4x6) and $1.00 for an 8x10! archive quality too.

I am using it for jpeg photos. I have inserted an SD card and it worked very well. That is the only feature I have used.

I just opened my preset list and it does include both Photoshop and Lightroom. It's pretty much customizable to just about any App. i use it for Final Cut Pro X and HATE not using it now. All the major shortcuts right there for me. I highly suggest getting one.

I've used Picasa with this machine and it works very fast. It easily applies the included fixes (contrast, hue/color saturation, etc. ) with no lag. Picasa is a lot less resource intensive then photoshop though. I take pictures with a 7.1 megapixel camera - the average photo is about 3.5megs.The mousepad takes getting used to when you want drag and drop things but you get used to it.

yes you can. I always save my photo's as jpeg and also as a tiff . Esp if they are small or special ones I want to keep. JPEG's randomly loose pic. as you move them around. Tiffs are always the same. They are larger though but space is cheap/

If you're trying to load .jpg's and you feel like you have tried everything, you're probably doing the same thing I did. On the Viewsonic VFD820 Digital photo frame, the photos have to be in the BASELINE format. Its the most important part if you're getting the red circle with a slash. I took all the photos off Facebook and they are in PROGRESSIVE format. ****I saved them all as .tiff and then exported them all as .jpg with 1000 max pixel dimension and this solved my troubles. If you just save it as .jpg with out changing to .tiff (or .png) it will just revert to the progressive format. I hope this saves someone some time.
