Ever since Corel bought them, I switched to PhotoFiltre[^]. V6 is free.

I hung on with JASC V9 for ages - but it didn't play nice with Aero, so I eventually bit the bullet and ungraded to X6*
It has all the usual Corel signs: more bugs, slower, load of features nobody uses (or even remembers were there until it's too late).
* I meant to write "upgraded" but perhaps I've coined a new word: "To Ungrade: To install a later version of software that isn't as good as the version you were using"
Example: "I ungraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10"

I was having problems loading hi-res images. Anything higher that 200dpi and I would have to load the file in parts, convert the layers to raster, and add them one at a time to the final image. What a pain. At least in X8, I can work with the entire layered image without crashes (although it's painfully slow with a large image and a lot of layers). I hate the interface though - the old one (in PSP7) was fine.

I definitely agree on the interface: I still can't get the tool palettes to go where I want 'em...
But I could open a 600dpi, 3880 x 4997 image and edit it in V9. Mind you, the pspimage file was 117MB!

Paint.NET[^] is also very good.

Then 45% off.
Then 25% off (IIRC)
So... if I don't accept, the price goes UP?
So find the persistent counter in the registry, and change it to a negative value so Corel pays you to get the latest version.

I gave up on them with XII, and haven't upgraded since.
Guess what! It still works!

If someone asks what they should use for a place that researchers can share documents and have discussions what would you recommend?
This would be a global 'community'.
I first thought of Yammer, but it seems to be for internal for businesses and this would be open to any internet user if approved.
No Facebook group is desired as they are looking for something more professional.
Thanks in advance.

 I second this. Slack is a great tool for sharing/collaboration.

I haven't used Slack before, can people outside the organization join and can it have auto-join?
