Oops. That's editing, not deiting.
I wouldn't say Live Picture ran circles around Photoshop but it was a great product for creating photo montages. I think Live Picture (the app) got killed more by Live Picture (the company) getting distracted by their internet apps like Zoom. Which brings me to my question: Is there any plan for the server products? I've always thought that Zoom and Reality Studio were interesting products but overpriced and too Windows server centric. I'd love to see them updated and released with a better licensing plan.

Live Picture
Too bad MGI elected to kill Live Picture (formerly from Live Picture Corp). It was one of the best Photo Imaging Solutions I've ever used. Ran circles around Photoshop with it's real time deiting, unlimited file sizes, 48 bit colorspace, resolution independent textures and gradients, etc., etc..
Unfortunately, like Beta vs. VHS, success or failure in business is rarely determined by the quality of a product or technology, but rather herd mentality.
