Originally posted by Pentaxoid The best app for PP is CaptureOne. Why? Because it has very minimal features, so you don't waste time tweaking things that won't make a difference.
If you need to do some photo editing, then PS Elements is very good and "cheap".
Concerning Gimp, you'll get pissed really quickly and/or will be very inefficient.
I tried CaptureOne and really liked it...then bought a new computer and tried to find it to download again. Either I'm blind or all I can find are sites including Adobe which claim you need CS4 to use it. I never had CS4 only PS Elements. Can you direct me to where I can download it?
UPDATE
Duh....I found it...I must have been deranged when I last tried.
Something new this time. Now it claims that it has not been approved for XP users and to continue at your own risk. So being deranged, I did. Has anyone else experienced problems using CaptureOne with XP?
