I was looking around Deviant Art, and I saw all this space art, and other art that was created through Adobe Photoshop? I assume I could get a hang of this program if I knew what it was, and how I get it? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's a graphics program that can be used for a lot of different things. The newest version, Adobe Photoshop CS2, costs a good 600 dollars so it's not very easy to get.

Yes. The Adobe website offers a 30 day trial on many of their products. Very nice for those of us who can't shell out $600 so we can make a pretty picture on the computer..

Takes time to learn though... A very long time for most people unless they have tutorials or past experience. :(

If I can learn half of Auto CAD, than I can learn Adobe. :D

I downloaded the 30 day trial and when it didn't open after the trial was over, I got mad. I ended up buying it. CS2 is great.

i have an uncle who has unlimited beta trials on many of the photoshop programs.. he works for some graphics company.. lucky him lol

dont get photoshop, get gimp.... its FREE, and can do about 9/10ths of the stuff that photoshop can. it is also EASIER TO OPERATE imo, and makes anamation easy.

 

 

 

if you still insist on getting it, get an older version and use that, or upgrade an older version, or best yet, bring a blank cd, and copy the photoshop that your school has, bring it home, and upload it onto your computer :lol: :lol:

 

 

 

gl with whatever you do, and also, ill get an example of what you can do with gimp up soon... (possibly :lol:)

 

 

 

edit: not sure what you were looking at, but this is kinda what gimp can do =) took like 4 minuites too lol

^^strtongly sugest you read that.

That's awsome.

 

 

 

But I need some sort of GTK+2.0 thingy to install it. I can't find a proper download area, where can I download this GTK thingy.

That's awsome.

Yeah, I got the same thing I'm gonna try deloria god's link.

GIMP is fine when you're starting out but when you get to a certain point, you'll be very limited. I started with GIMP and I thought that it was nearly as good as PhotoShop. Then I downloaded the free trial and they were on two totally different levels.

you guys ever consider hittin the link when you get the error mesage?

Ok, GIMP's driving me mad.

 

 

 

I open GIMP, I get 2 windows, some weird toolbar thingy, and some drawing thingy with brushes I can't use apparently. So I'm following a tutorial to make a sig. It says open a 420x90 new thingy, so I do, and now I have a third window I have to somehow manage. Then it says, simply click the brush and draw. Which is impossible, I'm suppose to draw on entirely different window, and I can't draw on the bush window.

 

 

 

I'll upload a pic, this is driving me mad!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

This thing is so confusing!! And what's up with the 2/3 windows! They couldn't compact it into 1 window!

Well, usually when I get a trial of anything, and I want to keep it, I try to cheat it.... :twisted:

 

 

 

All I do is download the trial, then when it's trial period is almost up, just set the computers clock back to the date before the trial was downloaded, and there you have it. Free trial! This works 90% of the time for me...

^^ i posted that link in an earlier post... should help you out... also, ctrl+l = layers menu... took me like a week to figure that out lol...

 

 

 

you should try to hit some of the links i gave you, they are really great stuff...

Wow, GIMP is nothing like PS. :lol: Paint.Net is supposed to be a whole lot close to Photoshop.

 

From the look of it GIMP has maybe 1/6th the amount of tools.

in all reality, gimp is almost as effective as ps, but all the tools are hidden rofl...

That's awsome.

 

 

 

But I need some sort of GTK+2.0 thingy to install it. I can't find a proper download area, where can I download this GTK thingy.

 

 

 

 

 

In case you haven't found it by now, the GTK+Runtime Environment can be downloaded on the GIMP website.

Yeah, it's really hard to see everything it has to offer just from that screenshot. Once you figure out where the stuff is it gets a lot easier.

so is gimp the best alternative to photoshop because I want to be careful about this.

 

:ohnoes: virus :ohnoes:

 

Or at least a quality program, I heard it crashes quite a bit...

GIMP is the best alternative to PS that I've found and I've never had it crash on me. And you won't get a virus from it.

 

 

 

And (to everyone) please stop worrying about viruses. I will never purposely link you to a file containing a virus or that I haven't tested. And if you do get a virus (whether it be from a link given by me or anyone else) there are programs designed to get rid of them..
