Summary: Amazing...
Review: Canvas Standard Edition is a great solution for the private Canvas user. It features amazing functionalities like special effects, drawing tools and the ability to use and manipulate both bitmap and vector art. The greatest thing about Canvas is that you in one single program can do same as in Photoshop, Illustrater and QuarkXpress - no other graphic program is able to provide you with the same complete graphic solution.

I have used Canvas for several years and it has made my life more effective and less frustrating - two qualities it is hard to find in any other software product. It also makes me more creative because I can focus on my work instead the program itself - it is so easy.

Life must be hard without Canvas...

Summary: So so if you want simple drawings
Review: I have used 7.0 SE on Win2KPro for about a year.
I really want an updated MacDraw program -- I don't need Canvas's fancy image manipulation features. For my usage, it's far too complex and difficult to use. It is also sometimes gives me a black screen on death, which is not so easy to do on Win2kPro.

I also find it difficult to paste its pictures into MSWord2K.
Sometimes the pictures don't print right. It may be a Microsoft bug, not a Canvas bug, but if you want seamless integration, be alert.

Summary: Move Over Adobe and Corel
Review: One word: fantastic! Many software claim to be a graphics suite (i.e. CorelDRAW) but only Deneba Canvas is one. You can easily (really) draw, paint, publish to the Web with rollovers. The tools are top-notch and so is the technology. You can apply any image effects (including Photoshop plug-ins)to not only pictures but vectors as well (including text). You can create animated GIF, rollovers (terrific UI) and publish all to the Web in 3 steps and the output is the best I've seen (but requires latest browsers). I wish I had bought it earlier: I would have avoided a lot of frustration trying to use CorelDRAW and Photoshop. Two wishes: Deneba, please have some presets gallery for the advanced effects and please allow fills to be combined with 3D.
