Very nice work..
Shows another means of using PhotoImpact. Out of curiosity, what program did you use for the 3D work?

Sorry but no one here works for Corel and so we would be guessing.
My best educated guess would be that Corel appear to have streamlined their range of products. Examples are the demise of MediaStudio Pro, DVD Workshop and CD&DVD Picture Show. I would not build up any hopes of a new version of Gif Animator.

Well, PhotoImpact is very important to finish the scene with my elf cop!
I adjust the colors, lights, smoke and the light from the thunderstorm with PhotoImpact. This scene are my tribute to Resident Evil. PhotoImpact save my day, because I like darkness, real darkness with heavy dark colors!
I think this scene works very well. Creepy enough!

Thank you for the answer. Well Gif animater was very importen part of PhotoImpact. Pity they destroying my fav image software!
I don't want to use Photoshop, but the question is if I have any other choice?

You can still use Gif Animator 5 that came with previous versions.
I found it also works with Vista Home Premium.

I can't believe you did that with a filthy human. You should be ashame of yourself!
I used PhotoImpact 12 to improve sunlight and shadows in the picture of the three elven girls.

Very nice work indeed!
Yes, GIF Animator 5 hasn't been updated in years (still version 5.05). But as long as you still have an earlier PI, you can install just GA 5 from the installation program.
Just wondering - have you checked out
3D Total ? You may want to include your work there, too.
