Rating: Summary: Good Product that Crashes Your System Review: When I was deciding between Jasc and Photo Impact when selecting image editing software, I read the reviews about how Photo Impact caused system trouble for several users. I bought Photo Impact 8 anyway becuase I wanted their web page publishing features and I thought the other users might have simply had inadequate resources for a demanding application type. But I should have heeded the warnings of others. I had a brand new, bullet-proof 3 GHz Windows XP system, but after I installed Photo Impact, the system crashed once and ground to a crawl often-- even when the application wasn't open! Not a problem of resources, just a badly programmed application "back-end." Luckily, when I uninstalled it, the system recovered.As far as features go, well, they might have been the best for the money, but it's a moot point. Definately not worth the probliems the application caused to my system and the $89 lost.
