Got some bundled software with a new tablet and thought I’d see if anyone is familiar enough with it to answer some Q’s …
Elements 3 … does it usurp all the file associations like E2 did? I loaded E2 once (free copy with a digicam) and it assigned itself as the default for all the files I usually open with Photoshop, which pissed me off … does 3 do the same? If so I won’t bother loading it.
Painter Essentials 2.0 … is this a supplement to Painter (like brushes etc) or a separate stripped down program like Classic? Couldn’t find anything about this one on the net … probably benign enough though, right? (I have Painter IX)
nik Color Efex Pro 2.0 … this looks like some color correction filters for Photoshop … any one recommend this? I can usually make any needed color corrections with Curves but if there’s something special about this I’ll try it.
Thanks.
