Book Reviews of Photo Restoration and Retouching Using Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo
Book Review: A gift from the graphics-manipulation gods
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had Paint Shop Pro since I bought version 7.04. I use Corel Paint Shop Pro Photo for trying to restore thirty-year-old color photos, and for the playful recapping of comic-book covers. But the available documentation has been pretty frustrating -- it tells you WHAT the software does, but not WHEN or HOW to use it. Well, Correll does what I do (restoring old photos), but he does it ten times better than I do. He in fact restores photos that I would swear are lost causes. And in his book, he walks you step-by-step through the restorations (seventy-three in all). So at last I'm being told, "If you have X photo problem, here's how to fix it." But wait, there's more--
The photos he restores are of himself, his wife, his kids, his relatives, and his wife's relatives, and he tells the human story behind each photo. Misanthropes will hate that, but all these little stories made me like the guy.
In the book, he includes his email address if you have questions. I've already emailed him twice, and he indeed knows his stuff.
I rate it 5.00000000 stars. I can think of nothing bad to say about this book.
