xanthic Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 Now that Photoshop is subscription only (Starting at a bargain £27.34/month...), is there any other similar software that anyone can recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kheldar Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 As above, Gimp or consider looking for an older version of PS that can still be found on Amazon, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xanthic Posted August 19, 2013 Author Share Posted August 19, 2013 Looks like Nebulosity has just been upgrade to v3 - http://www.stark-labs.com/whatsnew3/whatsnew3.html GIMP is pretty good but doesn't yet do 16 bit TIFF (next version apparently, maybe in a couple of months) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kheldar Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 v3 has been around about 18 months or so It's a good program, but it's not PS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dawson Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Does the free version of paintshop which ibbo posted about (and which i installed on both computers) no longer work for free or is it just outdated now: http://www.eastmidlandsstargazers.org.uk/topic/3483-free-photoshop-cs2/?fromsearch=1 James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dawson Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 The other thing Leigh might be to ask [or look] on SGL as well. Jd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 Paint Shop Pro X5 is available from Amazon at £35.99 http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B008TI5Y42/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Just bought a copy for the office, but not had time to try it out properly yet. Gets pretty good reviews and one of my colleagues has already been trying out the HDR features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xanthic Posted August 20, 2013 Author Share Posted August 20, 2013 I had a play with a demo of Corel's AfterShot Pro. Got some good results pretty fast. I honestly don't get their pricing though. X5 £35 from Amazon, £60 to download it from them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kheldar Posted August 20, 2013 Share Posted August 20, 2013 (edited) Gimp 2.8.6 supports 16bit images I think?! Edit : Scratch that - it's on the 2.9 unstable branch Edited August 20, 2013 by Kheldar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
