    Thanks Shirley!! I bought mine when it was Jasc and didn't know they got bought out. That's what I have version 7! Didn't even try to load it, but I really like making cool animations and put a few on my blog of my favorites. Well rats guess I need the newer version to work right, thanks for the info

    I also use Photoshop, but Adobe has a smaller program called Elements that you can find on sale at times. If you are not set in your ways, there is a good open source free program called the Gimp. It runs on Windows. I don't know what version of 7 you have, but from Pro up you can run virtual XP. I'm running Adobe Illustrator 8 on it as Adobe messed up the verification process for Illustrator CS2.

    Yes I have it. How does that save the pictures... to you hard drive? I am not to knowledgable at this.. I have been useing Picture IT for 8 years and it was just the perfect program for me and what I do. I just tried windows Photo Gallery and what a night mare that one is!First it worked but it wasn't to friendly, then it started opening in a different window and there was no place to resize or save! Any tips on using Paint?

    My nephew told me about Gimp and he said it is every bit as good as Photoshop....haven't tried it myself so can't attest to that, but I thin it might be worth a try.
    I looked at Gimp but my computers anti virus program Sophos... said it comes with search virus's and advised me not to download it. Not exactly sure what all that means as many have said they like it, but I can't afford to take to many chances at the moment!

    Try IRFANVIEW - it's free so maybe worth a try until you decide what you need and how much you want to spend. Good luck
