When will Paint Shop Photo Pro X4 be out?

Post by Hooterville »

I would think soon now that Video Studio X4 is here.
What you think?

That is pure speculation. But OK, if you just want to chin-wag with others... :roll:

Ah rumors and speculation. Always interesting, no?

In February a person I was talking to at Corel suggested there would be a beta test of something new (either a patch or an actual new version I wasn't paying enough attention) in a few months. So assuming I understood them properly, which is a big "if", I will make the assumption and say not for a bit. Hopefully they are going to do the official beta test again for X4 meaning it won't be out for a while.

Last year I took a survey and it asked what PSP would need to do for me to recommend X4 to others. That was before the third and fourth patches. Still no X4.

I still like PSP, just wish it worked a bit better and caught up with some of the other programs in terms of features. I realize to make that happen takes money....so often it takes the cost of an update to continue developing a program. I would continue to buy updates.....as long as I see some development....and in some ways I think X3 was a bit regressive. Anyway, it would be good to see what they will offer in X4.

Adverts for Corel products when you close PSP don't bother me.

Very roughly, the Coreol PSP releases have been once a year in the fall (September).
From memory, very approximately and without checking, something like:-
X 2005
XI 2006
X2 2007
X2 Ultimate 2008
X3 2009
X3 Ultimate 2010

So I would predict:
X4 Sept. 2011

Every version of PSP from PSP 6 to PSPP X3 Ultimate Edition has been released in August or September, except PSP 8 (April 2003) and the original version of X3 (January 2010).

Thanks, Tim, my memory isn't so good although I thought there was a longer delay with X3 coming out. :idea:

X3 is doing everything I need it to do. My problem is that it is so slow! I have a 6 core AMD that X3 is not compatible with, so it only will use 1 processor! Just patch that problem and I'm a happy camper!
