Software Review: Micrografx Picture Publisher 8 Software Review: By If you are familiar with image editing software, than you'll have no problem using Micrografx's latest version of Picture Publisher. However, if you're a beginner, you will need to take advantage of the online tutorials and extensive HELP files included in Picture Publisher 8 (PP8), but it should be fairly easy to use once you're more familiar with it. Opening up a photo or graphic expands the top toolbar and menu items Personally, I've tried Adobe Photoshop, Paintshop Pro and some other photo/image editing programs, but have found Picture Publisher the best for me - thus far.

I previously had Version 5, so jumping to PP8 was a good choice - not only because it's the newer version, but also because of its added capabilities - some of which are very unique. Installing PP8 was easy (it seems that as time goes by, it gets easier and easier to install any type of Windows-based software) and fairly quick. When I started PP8, I could see differences between Version 5 and 8 right away. The first time the main window appears, a separate window pops up to ask what you want to do. I disabled this option - I hate being asked questions each time I go into a program. A toolbar not only appears at the top and left of the main window as in Version 5, but a new toolbar sits on the right side of the window.

And, of course, the toolbar icons were not all the same as Version 5, so I had to go through each one to discover what it did. The toolbars can be customized to suit your needs - I left mine as is, only because it currently fits my needs. The function commands at the top of the program window contain five pull-down menus when the program starts: File; Edit; View; Tools; and Help. Once a photo or graphic has been opened, the main toolbar expands to include Mask, Map, Object, Image, Effects and Window pull-down menus. The hardest thing to get used to was the location of the image editing menu window - it used to be listed under the Edit pull-down menu in Version 5. After much hunting and frustration, I finally found it under the Effects pull-down menu - it's now called the Effects Browser.

The effects browser allows you to give your photo or graphic extra 'oomph' PP8 has the usual crop, mask, magnify, text, and other tools found in many image editing programs. However, PP8 gets high marks for its expanded Effects Browser, which lets you not only manipulate a photo or graphic, but also do some pretty interesting things to it (see images). PP8 is also great for creating logos, simple graphics, then spiffing them up with one or more effects. There are far more options available with PP8 versus its earlier versions, and it is much improved, although it did take some getting used to. Other goodies include 'Wizards,' which allow you to create unusual objects using templates, such as making a puzzle out of your photo or graphic; getting rid of the dreaded 'red eye' in photos; making buttons for web pages; it has over 10,000 royalty-free stock photos; plus web page output. PP8 is very efficient at what it sets out to do, but the learning curve is a bit high if you haven't owned a previous version. While checking out the various effects, I found there were many more than what was in the Effects Browser I was used to.

I found over 140 visual effects, filters and macros, which made my daffodils look totally different - some very cool, some odd and some downright scary. Other web page-related functions include a gif animator (with easy-to-understand instructions), web pattern viewer, copy to HTML, image maps and direct links to Micrografx's web pages for updates, support and add-ons. The top left photo is the original, scanned in at 75 dpi; the middle top photo uses PP8's 'sphere' effect, available in the Effects Browser; the top right photo uses the 'oil painting' effect; bottom left uses the 'mosaic tile' effect; bottom middle uses the 'sharpen' effect; and bottom right uses the '3D Puzzle Pieces' effect Although PP8 won't replace my web design or desktop publishing programs, it is a wonderful addition to them.
