Corel Photo Paint X3

Grab These Proven Tips, Tools And Techniques To Quickly and Easily Master PHOTO-PAINT And Create Better Scans, Images And Prints In Less Time Let’s face it. PHOTO-PAINT is a high-quality image manipulation program. But it’s a bear to use if you don’t know how. And while the manuals tell you how to do it technically, they’re often written by geeks who don’t know how to speak to the user. In fact, I often wondered whether the people who write the manuals ever actually use the program to create a professional image. They seem to lack the “real world,” down and dirty, get-things-done techniques that professionals actually use. As an example, what’s the Number 1 mistake most PHOTO-PAINT users make that can easily ruin virtually every image they work on? I'll let you know in a minute.

If you’ve been reading computer graphics magazines or ezines you've probably seen my name. I’ve spent the last 11 years working as an Artist and Writer. I’ve been active as a Digital Artist for 10 years and way back in 1988 I worked as a Camera Operator in what was known as the Multi-Image industry (a precursor to multimedia as it’s known today). Over 11 years I’ve published 322 articles and 3 books on the subject of computer graphics and photography. I was the main contributing Writer to Streaming Media World, where I wrote over 111 articles over a 16 month period. The topics I’ve covered include Software Reviews, Tutorials, Tips and Tricks, Features, Profiles and Investigative Reporting. I create my own illustrations, photographs and screen shots. In 1996, I entered into a collaborative effort with 3 photographers and one designer. Together, we created 296 digital images for stock photography catalogs. A sampling of my clients are Visual Convergence, Web Developer, Photo Techniques, Mac Design, Layers Magazine, Photoshop User, Streaming Media World, WebReference.com and Rangefinder. Client Feedback The Corel Photo-Paint X4 Insider is a wealth of information for anyone seeking to learn the program for the first time. Experienced users will find hidden nuggets of information long-overlooked that can invigorate their pixel-based editing. One of the challenges of any advanced software package like Corel Photo-Paint is the breadth of features offered. Nathan’s book paints with a broad brush to cover the major features and minor nuances of the image editing package. The book covers peripheral items like input devices as well as monitors and other hardware that interfaces with Corel Photo-Paint. It's a good companion to the manual and a much easier read! Rikk Flohr Fleeting Glimpse Images Minneapolis, St. Paul Help with Image Slicing After learning how to do image slicing from Nathan's FREE video clip, I started using it in almost every Web project. Then one day everything started to scramble once I exported my files. After pulling out almost every single hair on my head, I found Nathan's contacts on the Web and called him. After a friendly and helpful Skype conversation, the mystery was solved. Halleluja! I will definitely keep Nathan's contacts at hand when I'm using Photo-Paint. It would be worth every penny (that I would gladly pay to solve my Corel Mysteries). Quick - Friendly - Knowledgeable. Thanks, Nathan Johanika Pretorius South Africa I’m not saying all this to brag, but I think it's extremely important to understand the expertise of someone before you take their advice. (We’ve all seen web sites and advice that aren’t worth the pixels they are printed with.) As a Writer, my specialty is taking tough topics and breaking them down into terminology that's easy to understand.
How Does This Help You? I’ve finally pulled the best PHOTO-PAINT tips, tricks and techniques together into one resource that will help anyone become a better PHOTO-PAINT user. Introducing: The Corel PHOTO-PAINT X4 Insider The Corel PHOTO-PAINT X4 Insider is an extensive practical resource that not only covers PHOTO-PAINT, but the software and devices that work in conjunction with it. The Corel PHOTO-PAINT Insider can be found in the library on the Corel web site where it's being sold as a standalone. And as you can see in the screen shot above, at various times during the year, it's also sold with the Corel Graphics Suite X4, as you can see on the lower left in this screen shot. Note: VAT taxes are collected if buyers reside in European Community (EC) countries. Impressive! I love the tutorials Most tutorials just tell you what tools are in the program, but none of them actually show you how to use them....... that's where yours marks the difference...... you reveal the secrets and show how it's done. Yours faithfully, Nick Senon Let's go back to that question I asked earlier. What's the Number 1 mistake most PHOTO-PAINT users make that can easily ruin virtually every image they work on?
They don't calibrate their monitors.... Why Is This Important? BECAUSE WITHOUT COLOR CALIBRATION YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO RELY ON ANYTHING YOU SEE!!! Sure, you might be one of the lucky users who gets a perfectly balanced monitor right out of the box... But Do You Really Want To Take That Chance? In The Corel PHOTO-PAINT X4 Insider you'll find out how to calibrate your monitor.
It only takes 5 minutes...
And when you're done you can save the profile. As your monitor ages, recalibration only takes a minute or two and then you're good to go!!!
In addition, PHOTO-PAINT X4 now supports the Adobe Color Management module (CMM), which allows you to use the same color calibration with PHOTO-PAINT and all your Adobe programs. All you have to do is enable one setting and you're good to go. In The Corel PHOTO-PAINT X4 you'll find out how to become productive and profitable quickly And unlike many other computer manuals that fade into antiquity in a few months, many of the techniques here will last for years. As an example, if you want to find out how to photograph art correctly (page 96), that technique will still be as useful 20 years from now as it is today.
For Web designers, image compression is one of the top issues. How much is too much? On pages 66-73, you'll find out about the popular Web image formats: When to use each format, How to compress an image without sacrificing quality. Why one format will give you a better result than another. Everything you will find out has a practical application, not some flash in the pan technique that you won’t use at all. This manual shows you how to avoid a lot of mistakes up-front and get the results you deserve. What you’ll learn here will save you many hours of frustration and allow you to become productive quickly.
