Paintshop Photo Pro X3 review and giveaway ends 1/31

I love to take pictures and I love editing them too! Have you ever looked at someones pictures or graphics and wished you could make your's look as good? I was sent a copy of the new program Paintshop photo pro x3 by Corel. I installed it and it didn't take long to learn my way around it. I have used other graphics programs before and some can be pretty complicated, but this one is not.


I made my new Blog banner and button using the graphics tools. There is so much more I can do with it but I wanted something simple that I can use with multiple backgrounds. 





"PaintShop Photo Pro X3 makes it easy to create professional-looking photos. Import, edit and share your images—all in one place. The new organizer helps you sort, rate and tag your photographs faster than ever. Make quick fixes in the enhanced Express Lab or use more advanced photo-editing tools such as the new Smart Carver™. Then upload to the web, create photo books and projects, or back up on disc. It's all your photo-editing tasks in one high-performance package."


I dug into my pictures and found one from Paige's football birthday party that I love. 


In this picture, there is a head covering some of the cake and it bugged me. I figured I would attempt to remove the parts of the picture I did not like. I removed the head blocking the cake, adjusted the colors, got rid of the red eye and cropped the photo to focus more on Paige. Check out what it looks like now!


This is my new favorite program!

Corel sent me a 2nd copy of this program to give away! How awesome is that???
