Grath Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 I want to get into making sigs/avatars/banners etc, but all I have is the trial version on PSP9. It will expire in 10 days, and I need to buy a photo editing program. I don't have the cash to buy Adobe Photoshop CS (it's like $650), but I was looking at Adobe Photoshop Elements 3.0. Is it a good program worth $100? Does it have decent filters and whatever else I need? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tttia Posted March 8, 2005 Share Posted March 8, 2005 It is decent, but I would go for psp before photoshop elements. Or...get a wacom tablet and get elements for free (though not version 3). Before you do any of that though, try the gimp. It is free..The GIMP is an open-source port from Linux. It is fairly stable, has a fair array of features. Photoshop it is not. But it is probably the best free option out there. http://gimp-win.sourceforge.net/stable.html You will need to download two files. First you need the Gtk environment. This is a file that enables the other to run. Then you need the Gimp itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
