    The GIMP is all good.

    Since they added the menus across the top of the image you are working on, many people's confusion has gone.

    Use The GIMP until you have hit it's limit, and they consider purchasing something else. But I reckon most won't hit it's limit. And, if you think you are up to it, you could try writing your own plugins to do the stuff you need.

    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    It's pathetic when you see how much things cost - I waited years to get Photoshop CS2 and ended up getting it while I was a student so it was about $400 instead of $1200. Ridiculous, it's the same stuff!
    Yes, I am pedantic about spelling and grammar so get used to it!

    Yes, but the point is, people who use CS2 professionally are going to make a lot of money out of it, so it's a legitimate expense.

    Adobe are practically giving the software away to amateurs at those prices, in the hope that they will train up, become professionals and use their software.

    Yes, its expensive. But so are mechanics tools. Same thing.

    its a nuts hard programe that take a huge team of hardkore leet guys to make so the price tag reflects that it is industry standerd and awesome.

    I bought a 2nd hand computer with it on it. I don't know if its legal or not.
    Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot

    I actually find it easy.

    However, I've been using it since 1991 (version 1.5) and was on the beta test team for versions 3 and 4 so I've been with it for a while.

    Feel free to ask if you need any help with it.
