I picked this up yesterday in store for £2

Software (http://www.thedvdforums.com/affiliatelink.php?localaffiliateid=56&url=http://www.jessops.com/online.store/categories/Accessories/Software/products/Jessops/Photo%20Editing%20Software-73575/Show.html)

As it said editing and drawing - I was looking for a better than 'paint' drawing tool for kids, where Adobe is overkill. That's all the drawing bit is, however was impressed with the photo bit - to say "photoshop lite" is an insult - very fast to load and use - 50+ filters and all the tools most people would ever need - I was very impressed and for £2 (or £1.97 with new vat). If you need something small and fast - this is ideal - put it on my work laptop for odd bits I need there. Left kids playing making pictures out of multiple filters.

It supports .PSD and .RAW as well as usual formats, does layers - as I said more than enough for most users (or parents!)

Is it VISTA compatable. PSE is my program of choice but mine is getting dated PSE4 - but it does all I need.

How does this compare with PSE - for £2 it might be worth a punt.

I use paint.net (http://paint.net). Has loads of features and is free.

the box says vista, but also said 95....

I don't know PSE, but a friend said looks similar, but for £2 I'm happy and would have still been happy for quiet a bit more.

As I said was for the kids and they were making pictures by just building up filters so I'm happy.
