Hi,

For something as simple as changing the lighting exposure, there are 5 separate mouse clicks or movements you must do in Photoshop. Nice, especially in a day and age where every single click and move adds to the wear and tear on human hands.

In Paint Shop Pro, almost everything has a keyboard shortcut: In the case of light levels…shift b…BAM! you are there.

I can work like lightening in PSP…so few mouse clicks…so many nice shortcuts.

A lot of people like treasure hunts, easter egg hunts and so forth…and it can be fun to hunt and search for often used commands…but after the novelty of tunneling down 5 or more menu pulldowns wears off…so too does my appreciation of an app that makes you work hard…literally, to get the same thing PSP gives without hurting the hands.

When I have lots of time and my hands are not hurting…PS is great. But when I want to get it done quick, without all the extra clicks…PSP is my choice.

Love,

Me

PS. I anticipate that lovers of PS will defend this complaint by doing what they always do to complaints against their beloved app – call this complaint a troll. But it’s true…PS engineers have not gone out of their way to make shortcuts to most everything the way PSP engineers have.

In that case i’d stick to PSP if I were you 😉
Not to defend my most beloved app, but simple preference.

And i’m quite confident that Photoshop 8 will be equipped with a Keyboard Shortcuts manager similar to that of Illustrator (that is CTRL-SHIFT-ALT-k)

On top of that I think they should rename you app some time soon to Paint Shop Amateur. So far what they have been doing is wait for a new Photoshop and start programming like crazy to equip PSA with the same (or similar to).

Looking at the website, I don’t get turned on when they have to commercialise with features such as "correcting perspective" and "straightning photos"

I also think there are too many people that do not have a professional attitude towards working with computers. We should all know about RSI and how we can prevent it. After working with Photoshop now for the past 7 years (and starting it up practically every day) I still have no complaints whatsoever.

If you would RTFM you’d know that CTRL+L opens the Levels dialogue box. Of course somebody like you would go the long way to find Brighten and Contrast through the menu bar, Levels is way too advanced right? Get lost and go troll somewhere else

I’m unaware of any definition of "professional" that includes being polite to trolls who aren’t paying us anything.

BTW – your "prediction" was, of course, entirely correct, since you were indeed trolling it hardly took rocket scientists to recognize it for what it is.

Nor did it take much genius to spot you changed your posting name.

Well being a Littleboy explains it all. My son just loves to do things the hard way.

CTRL-SHIFT-ALT-k

Geeezzzz I can’t wait. Do you think that there’s still time to suggest something as little more complex? Only 4 key strokes seems a little "newbie" or "childish" for such a mature application. Maybe something more professional to be in keeping with the propeller-head mentality.

I like CTRL-SHIFT-ALT-y-o-u-h-a-v-e-t-o-b-e-k-i-d-d-i-n-g-m-e. Mostly Mac heads anyway and well used to being a slave to the keyboard. Now here is a shortcut to be proud of, only PS users with their infinite knowledge would be capable of doing it. And in the end isn’t that what it’s all about?

Well.. rest assured Tony, you probably won’t be needing it that frequently (unless you have trouble makin up your mind).

You see, that’s usually they are so clever to use these longer combinations for the things you don’t quite need that often. It has been mentioned many times before 😉 but are you familiar with the Illustrator shortcuts manager? Would you be much happier if you would find this one in PS?

What’s your goal here? Because all you do is proving that you don’t know the apps you use. There are other ways to make a statement. Or ask a question.

Hey, you can’t spell, you can’t read the shortcuts card that comes with Photoshop… we really shouldn’t expect you to be able to do something difficult like use proper software….

A very poor troll. Extremely obvious. 1 out of 10 for originality and 0 out of 10 for use of the English language.
