[marnel]

I downloaded my pics in the program that came w/my camera for RAW format and now I can't view it in Paint Shop ProX, I've done it before but now I can't and I don't know why any ideas on why this is happening?
I am so trying to look at them and edit them tonite! Arrgghhhh!! I'm about to scream and jump cuz I can't figure it out!

I haven't used PSP in a very long time, but from the quick Google search I did, apparently PSPX comes bundled with RawShooter. Do you have an option for this program either in your Windows start menu or in PSP itself (maybe in plugins?) ?

Raw Shooter I will have to look into that I'm not sure but I couldn't play w/em last nite wahhh and I need to get it edited tonite to print for this w/end. Any other ideas

At least for now, RAWShooter Essentials is free to download here (http://www.pixmantec.com/products/rawshooter_essentials.asp). Adobe acquired Pixmantec (unfortunately?) so it will no longer be updated. I think it's a bit of a shame, honestly; it's an awesome program. Oh well, I guess it's not surprising that its days as a freebie are numbered.

Anyway, it should work to download for your use. I use it exclusively, as I really dislike using PSE for editing my RAW pictures. For some reason, I can't save them as .jpg files in PSE, but it's sort of irrelevant, since I have so much more control over them using RAWShooter anyway.
