I use paint shop pro quite a bit as i do imaging work for websites etc. I have PSP 8 (which is really old but still my favorite one to use), PSPX15, and the newest one PSPX19. There is a lot of things you can do with them but I mostly use it to sharpen a picture, adjust the lighting, or remove something I don't want seen (like a tag, string hanging, or a hole in my pantyhose LOL) I don't use it much to alter Me, the background, or anything else when It come to my pictures. Don't get me wrong, I will play with a lot of the features to see what could be done but I would never play them off as "Me".
