Customer Reviews
Customer rating is 5 of 5  Easy Editing   2010-09-06
By anon_2003 (usa)
Good Stuff
+ Amazing amount of gradients, brushes, patterns, etc
+ Great user manual
+ Lots of customizable features
+ Ease of use
+ Case is easy to store

This software is amazingly fun and easy to use for anything you can possibly do on a computer. Whether touching up photographs you've taken or creating a new picture, Corel 11 is so nice to work with. Without looking at the user manual I managed to figure out how to use a lot of this stuff (I apologize in advance for not being an art major-I purchased this for fun). I used many of the brushes, patterns, etc to do photo-editing. I think the brushes are the most fun-there are so many, and you can make your own as well. there is a lot of control available with this version of Corel.

Perhaps this could seem overwhelming for people who have never used a CAD before-no worries; the instruction manual is very detailed and thorough! It is easy to look things up and read all about them. Although, simple playing around will yield the same, if not better results.

I also appreciate that the casing for this is the size of a CD case. Very easy to store.
Customer rating is 5 of 5  Amazingly fun and powerful painterly effects!   2010-08-26
By Bond... James Bond (Denver, CO)
I am a first-time Painter user, using Painter 11 as my first version of the tool, and my background prior to using Painter 11 is mainly as a serious amateur photographer using both Photoshop and Corel's own Photo-Paint. This is a very powerful and creative software for both graphic artists and photographers. I found the learning curve to be fairly steep, but a large part of my learning progress was sped up when I also ordered the book, Painter 11 for Photographers: Creating painterly images step by step , which I highly recommend as a book/DVD accompaniment to Painter 11 if, like me, you are new to this kind of graphics transformation software. For achieving various effects when combined with digital photography, I find that I often do not even use Photoshop in my workflow now. I would tend to give the ergonomics and usability of the software 3.5 to 4.0 stars, but the power and features that are packed into this fun application are so good that this is worth 5 stars!
Customer rating is 1 of 5  Total Lack of Customer Service   2010-08-25
By Keith P. Mitchell (Westminster, Maryland)
I am giving Corel Painter XI one star, only because there are not ZERO stars. This was not because of the product itself but because of Corel's horribly poor (lack of) Customer support and don't-care attitude about their customers.

I sat on the telephone to Corel customer service for over two hours and 12 minutes trying to contact their (lack of) customer service. This was long distance call on my dime, and I ran up a telephone bill for over 30 dollars on-hold. At 7:12 PM I got a recorded message (in my words): Go to Hell. Go directly to Hell. Do not pass GO. Do not collect 200-dollars. We at Corel do not give a damn about our customers or what you think about our customer service. Call back later and waste even more money waiting for our (lack of) customer service to answer your call, if ever.

My only successful contact with Corel customer service was to get a return authorization for a full refund. I got a refund for the product but not the 30 dollars I wasted sitting in a queue waiting for anyone at Corel to answer the phone.
Customer rating is 5 of 5  If You're into Creating, Painter is for You   2010-08-15
By Jana Greer (Los Angeles, CA)
I have to say right from the get go that Painter 11 is the most advanced, most intuitive painting and drawing program on the market today. I have friends who swear by Canvas, but they're just plane loco. That's what I think anyway. Painter is heads and hands above Canvas, can you even get Canvas anymore? Painter 11 is, I believe, the standard all other drawing and painting programs are measured by and it just keeps getting better and better.

If you're into creating, Painter is for you. Others have said, and it's true, you have to spend some time learning the program, but once you do, it seems to step back and let you get to it. I know, it seems like I've just contradicted myself, but it's true. Painter, especially this version, doesn't get in the way like so many other programs do. In fairness, neither does Photoshop anymore, but I remember how I stumbled with the program at first. I guess it's like anything else, if you put in the time, you reap the benefits and there are plenty of benefits to reap with Painter 11, like all the new brushes and the new Photoshop compatibility. Plus, even a novice can be turned into a digital Van Gogh, automatically.

I like Painter, have used Painter 10 everyday for the last couple years and I've used Painter 11 everyday for the last couple months. I love it to death, I really do.
Customer rating is 5 of 5  Just don't get scared of the interface...   2010-07-08
By JPT
...and you'll find the most awesome collection of art tools in existence :)

I recommend collecting some brushes from the likes of Jeremy Sutton and John Derry. That may sound crazy with Painter having soooo many right out of the box, but there's interesting things people have done with the brush engine.

Corel, you just need two goals:

1 - Make it fast. Real fast. Build it from the ground up if that's what it takes. Painter has a 2GB limit and is behind the curve.

2 - Do some house cleaning on the interface! It's just a bunch of floating palettes and lists! What is streamlined about that?!

And custom palettes... Adding brushes merely adds a brush category icon. So there might be ten brushes from one category in my palette, meaning ten identical icons. If I hover the mouse over the icon for about three seconds, the tool name comes up, but let me tell you, if I'm under deadline, that's too long!

Just make it play nicer with new technology (and my brain). Focus on the user experience, not adding features. Make it beautiful, not really awesome bloatware!

Painter still deserves 5 stars. The sheer variety of marks you can make leave no limitations on exploring visual creativity. Keep at it Corel!
