I am looking at this google offer which looks too good to resist.
Does anyone have experience with any of these serif products?

What are you looking for in detail? I once tested the Photo Plus demo against Photoshop - I've ended up buying Lightroom (before the price drop) and Photoline.
I don't exactly remember the reasons, but I suppose it was a mixture of workflow and functions. Well, Lightrrom is in a complete different boat, but Photoline - though ugly as hell - has an amazing feature set with respect to graphical editing.

Thanks for your response, the bundle itself comes with 5 products:
Serif PhotoPlus X4
Serif DrawPlus X4
Serif PanoramaPlus X4
Serif WebPlus Essentials
CraftArtist Scrapbooks

I have no idea about them, will have to read about them and have 13 days to decide if its worth investing in. I already have Adobe photoshop from my university, so not desperate in anyway.
Just wondering why somebody would give away $290 worth of something for $19?

Hi serendipity,

first of all I have to make a little update: I did the shootout against Photoshop Elements, of course. :wink:

I guess because X4 is way outdated?

If someone ever considered making a donation because of the translation as suggested (http://www.xyplorer.com/languages.php), then please consider grabbing the Serif offer and send me the guidance (download links and reg info).
The promo seems to be region-specific, USA.
1 day left, U$ 19,00 instead of regular U$ 290,00.

Thanks for the heads up, Serendipity.
