...I would buy this gem. I can't even begin to describe the options in this program. When it comes to painting, it's unlimited to what you can do. Well, it not only has probably hundreds of painting methods but effects as well. You start of with basic brushes listed, BUT, every one of those have numerous options. Before you know it, you are looking into lists and lists of effects, options, etc...
The one issue I did have, is every time you click on a brush for say, oil paint basic, there is always the option box that pops up right in the middle of the screen. That said, there may be a way to place it in the left pane, not have it open or open somewhere else. I didn't really look for it as my enthusiasm using the program over ruled this but will continue using the trial.
This is great for anyone but especially if you can paint naturally, which I can but can't afford the oils, canvas, brushes, etc... so it's a great option to release some artistic ability. Even if you can't paint, art is about fun and expression, this may be what you need to learn or improve.
It's far greater than any paint program I've used. I can't categorize Gimp or others with this, they are different types of editors for different purposes. All in all, if you are looking to buy an unlimited paint program, then look no further, you've found it.
EDITED REVIEW: Bless their hearts, there is a FREE scaled down version!! Thank You TB!!
