Pics Print is a Windows application that makes it simple to format and print high-quality photos, greeting cards, contact sheets, and family albums. Using wizards and templates, you can quickly grab images from digital cameras, scanners or disk, make color corrections and add style to them, resize and annotate them, and print them using your printer's highest quality settings.

Pics Print's folder browser lets you find images fast. With an intuitive Explorer-like folder tree and high-quality thumbnails of all of the images in that folder, identifying the right picture is quick and easy.

You can retrieve photos directly from any digital camera, and create a contact sheet with a single click. Using standard drag-and-drop techniques, you can move the thumbnail images to the final document, resize them, add text, and print them for friends and family.

The program includes WYSIWYG printing. The print preview screen lets you move, resize, and rotate images, so you'll never waste time or ink on pages that aren't exactly what you expect.

Pics Print has a built-in photo editor that lets you crop, resize, rotate, and color-correct images. Users who enjoy adding artistic effects to their photos can blur, emboss, and sharpen the images, add borders, and produce an unlimited variety of creative touches. There is even a red-eye remover that takes out the red circles that the camera's flash often adds to portraits.

You can create instant greeting cards with Pics Print's card wizard. Simply select an image, add text, and print. Using the built-in templates, or templates which you create yourself, you can create family album pages, sales sheets, and any kind of printed pages in just a few minutes. Pics Print lets you create huge posters that are up to 20 sheets tall and 20 sheets wide.

Pros: Simplicity in the form of tips at each first touch of a button and a simple user interface.
Cons: Too simple in an oversaturated market. If more features were added at the sake of bumping the price up closer to $100, it still would have been worth it.
So you’ve just dropped a few hundred bucks upgrading your old printer to a printer/scanner combo and threw out your old film for a digital camera. Rather than spending another $650 buying a...

Not half bad

Pros: WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) printing, good enough if you have nothing else
Cons: It takes time to get things right, it requires some knowledge of computers, and the end result relies on other factors that the program can't help; printer quality, paper quality, etc.
I have Adobe Photoshop Elements and a couple of other photo printing programs that came with my Digital Camera, Video Camera, and Printer; so I wouldn't buy Pics Print. However, for someone who has...
