Small-business owners can liberate themselves from the tyranny of graphic designers and create devastatingly cool images with PhotoSuite 4 Business Edition. Its slick, simple interface guides even visual-art novices through the process of collecting, altering, organizing, and publishing images with little to no hassle. Users can warp, crop, and rotate images, then create cool tapestries and panoramic shots until their eyes give out.

Playing with photos can be addictive, whether adding a few inches to an annoying cousin's waistline or finding the perfect color balance for a tapestry of products. Though these effects are neat, there just aren't enough to compare to a powerhouse like Photoshop, but for the price--and ease of use--it's hard to beat.

Once the fiddling is done, PhotoSuite helps the user organize photo files in albums and projects, share them online or through a network, and print them on the desktop or via online services. Experienced graphics workers will be frustrated at PhotoSuite's limited scope, but this package is aimed at small-scale or beginning users. The wizards are all powerful here, and most people will be grateful for the guidance, though backing up out of processes can take a few steps. The context-sensitive help is smart and useful--this is one of the rare programs you can really use without consulting the manual (though, as always, it does help).

For less than the cost of an hour of a graphic designer's time, PhotoSuite 4 Business Edition will help personal and business users work magic on photos, Web sites, and advertisements. --Rob Lightner

This review is from: PhotoSuite 4 Business Edition (CD-ROM)

this program is very easy to use and has many interesting features such as changing the lightness or darkness, making panoramas, superimposing cutouts onto other pictures and blending the image for realism, and stretching the pictures. you may also drag one picture on top of the other picture and reduce its visual appearance so that it looks like you have 2 pictures in one. this comes in handy when you want to make a ghost appear using a cutout.

about the only feature i found was missing on this program that would have been really useful was the typing words in the picture. if it is there, i couldn't find it and i played around with this software alot.

one of the most useful features was the gamma adjustment which allows you to increase or decrease the lighting, in a different way then just contrast changes. it allows you to see some of the objects that you wouldn't just be able to brighten up. it is more or less like looking through nightvision goggles.

you can adjust the coloring and tweek it to any way you like which makes it extremely handy if you want to make old style pictures with the reddish hue.

the printing features come in handy as well. you can mitchmatch what size of pictures you want on a normal sized paper. you can put a 6X8 with 2 3X5s on the same sheet or whatever you want.

fun to work with and fun to play around with. if you have a digital camera and you just want to change around the pictures to your tastes, this is perfect for you.
