i just want to know what u guys use... and rconmend for someone wanting to become better at computer tech art... i have a great understanding and so im told, talent... but not in computers... i just wanna know what photo shop i should get and how to obtain it...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

so what do you use, and what are its advantages?

Most people here use photoshop cs2 or gimp.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Photoshop cost $200 i think, but im pretty sure very few people bought it.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Gimp is free.

Edit: Sorry: Working on stopping those useless posts

Oh yeah, it is. I was thinking of ps elements.

It's much cheaper if you can get a student version or an older version. Most people will be fine with using 7.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I use photoshop 7, personaly. :)

thanks for the info guys... but i have NO idea what your talking about :thumbsup:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but i do have something call "JASC PaintShop Pro. 8"?... anyone know if its any good?

Paintshop pro is kind of the younger cousin of photoshop. In general it has the same tools, just less of them.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Generaly, however, it's fine to use. There is some people that use it instead of photoshop.
