5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome program!
Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2011
To be honest I wasn't expecting a whole lot for the price I got this for but it is awesome! It has teeth whitening, blemish remover, red eye removal, skin smoothing and so much more. All of the features are very easy to use and easy to figure out. I especially love the "time machine" feature where you can make a picture take on the effect of one taken decades or even centries earlier! As a new mom I have some pictures of me and my son very early in his life and I look hideous due to the dark circles under my eyes and the acne caused by crazy hormones, these pictures were saved thanks to this program! I'm so glad I have this, I'm not afraid to have my picture taken anymore! It can make a "non-photogenic" person like myself actually look good :)

4.0 out of 5 stars Good for the price

My specs:
Windows 7 64 pro
Phenom II X4 3.4 GHZ
4 GB of ram 1333mhz, timing 8-8-8-21
ATI power color 5850

The loading took 6 minutes each, (paintshop, project, painter) = 18 minutes, to be ready to use
The terms is no so different than other software, but if your still think, this company is spy on you,
just download the last patch, and use your firewall to block it access to internet, and stop your paranoia.
The software doesn't take control over your computer, but for some people who think that, just do the next step:
Click on "File" at the top of the screen, then Preferences/File Format Associations, remove the check from the check box,
or click the remove all, click ok to save and restart.
For the photo downloader, click on the icon, default settings , and choose what do you want to do, on it

Pros:
Express Lab
lots of pictures frame (much more than x2)
Raw lab
easy to use
Price
Etc...

Cons:
Not so intuitive
Memory resources

Good for beginners to intermediaries
If you want to go pro, get photoshop $$$

1.0 out of 5 stars Compatibility Problems with Windows 7
Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2011
I have been using Jasc/Corel photo editing software for a number of years and I love the software. I gave X3 Ultimate only 1 star because it created problems with the operation of my Windows 7 computer. The software claims to be compatible with Windows 7 -- but it wasn't compatible with MY Windows 7 computer.

The problems started immediately after I installed the software from the DVD. My computer started to hang/freeze when using X3 Ultimate AND when using other software. Internet Explorer also began "not responding", Windows Explorer frequently "stopped working", and I experienced the dreaded blue screen crash. Assuming that there might have been a problem with the install, I uninstalled the software and reinstalled it from the DVD. I went to the Corel website and downloaded all 5 patches/updates. The patches seemed to help, since the previous problems were less frequent, but over the next 1-2 weeks, the hang/freeze/not responding/stopped working problem increased to the point of total annoyance, and I experienced another blue screen crash. At this point, I uninstalled the X3 software, and success -- my computer was immediately back to its pre-X3 operation.

I still love Corel's photo editing software, overall, based on my past experience, but I can't use X3 Ultimate because it significantly interferes with the operation of my Windows 7 computer.

2.0 out of 5 stars NOT for XP
Reviewed in the United States on January 1, 2012
It has many added features, like the ability to do slide shows.
Although the box and the ads say it works on the XP, I caution
that it doesn't work well on the XP. The files are so large
you need to load it in stages. First the 360 megabyte program and
then the 750 megabyte program, and then the additions.
The program is a resource hog. Once started it took over 50% of
the CPU time (on my duel core XP). It took four minutes to start
the program, load an image, check the CPU usage and quit.

It also adds a few programs to your start-up. One is the Coral
Photo Downloader which can get images off a connected camera.

It takes a long time to install and it takes a long time to
uninstall as well.

I give it two stars because of the added features. I hope they
work well on faster machines.
