Can anyone from Corel tell me if they are looking at X6 for Linux? I have AfterShot Pro for Linux and would like to use PaintShop Pro.
TIA

Re: PaintShop Pro X6 & Linux
Don't hold your breath for an answer from Corel. This is a user to user forum, and Corel execs very rarely visit us except for very specific purposes.
Personally, I doubt that they are looking at a Linux version of PSP or any of their other products apart from ASP. ASP was a special case as a Linux and Mac version of its predecessor, Bibble, already existed when Corel took Bibble over and converted it to ASP. AFAIK, though nearly all the products covered by this Board once belonged to other companies, none had Linux (or Mac) versions, and I doubt that any real thought has been given to changing that.
Moreover, given the user base of the different OS's, I would think Mac would be given preference to Linux. However, as I say, I have no insider Corel knowledge of any plans to consider Mac or Linux versions of PSP...

Cheers. I guess I will have to stick with GIMP.

Re: PaintShop Pro X6 & Linux
PSP has always been a Windows version and there are no plans to have a Linux/Mac version.
I work for the Corel UK Support. I will not give technical support through this forum and my answer is only related to this thread.
