Graphics....Corel has made it clear they are pushing the product towards photo use. I doubt this survey will influence them any.

For a racing game. rFactor simulator.
This is only a small example of the end product. I use PSP to make a lot of the logos, trademarks, brands that are used on these cars.

Here's a small example of only 3 logo's I've made that are still in vector layers. Not raster. Of cause there's many more I've kept.

I use PaintShop Pro for Graphics mainly using a combination of Vectors over Bitmap images. Sometimes pure Vector, sometimes pure Bitmap but usually a combination.

Examples of my work would include: realistic bitmap promotional images with accompanying vector imagery and vector text, entirely vector images, hand drawn scanned images adapted to vector and bitmap, game graphics (how I got started), and resizing and recomposition stuff for different outlets and products which is why the Vector aspect is so important.

I cannot post any of my work here because it would be inappropriate to do so without the client's permission. I started out using PaintShop Pro purely for fun back in the JASC days. In the past 5 years I've been able to turn my hobby into a living. Right now I'm probably looking to switch programs because as easy to use as PaintShop Pro use, the vector capabilities are so far behind now for efficient professional work. "Time is Money"

I need better Vector tools that aren't slow, but also not excessively complicated to use. I also need .AI or at the very least .SVG export for my vector elements. I need the typical vector operations like merge, union, subtract etc.

For me, the bitmap side of PaintShop Pro is fine. I just need better and faster Vector Tools.
