Dan,

Really??  Cool..

To be fair, I only became acquainted with it when, upon being asked rather
suddenly to teach a course in multimedia, snorted around the software on
our server and found it (and precious little else!).

As you say, you really can do quite alot with it.

I'm a paid owner as well ;-)

I'll be hitting you up for that, whatever (don't do coffee, alas..
probably why I can't program worth a farthing), at RevConWest!

;-)

This did not install on OS X the way the docs say to do it.  Go to  
the forums to get the right way to install.  Beware it is still

   Me, I use Photoshop. Wonderful toolbox. Easy? Yes -- you can start out 
just noodling around like it was a color version of MacPaint. And when you get 
beyond that point, Photoshop is right there with you, providing more tools and 
functions. Inexpensive? Perhaps. The full Photoshop application isn't, 
particularly (Adobe list price: USD $600), but Adobe also makes a junior 
grade 
version of the app -- Photoshop Elements -- which might well be able to do 
everything you need, and will only set you back USD $100 if you buy it from 
Adobe. 
In both cases, you can find significantly discounted copies (particularly if 
you don't need the latest-and-greatest version); a good place to start looking 
would be Google's Froogle shopping service.

Hmmm, but for really simple stuff (and the ability to translate from and
two ~75 or more graphic file formats), there's nothing like the shareware
program GraphicConverter:

Love it...

It's no Photoshop, but if you don't quite need Photoshop and, in any
event, can't afford it...

RE: Graphic Design Tools

2005-11-26 Thread MisterX

I too still cherish my Lemke CD - I should frame it! 
Best shareware out there for graphics... 

For the story, thanks to GraphickConverter I translated some thousands of
images from my mac to my PC, including icons or to ico format. 

PowerFull Tool - paint tools where not as nice as Adobe's bigger program but
for the price and footprint, nothing came close to it!

For PCs, I recommend ACDSee - ultrafast browser, powerful catalog and nice
editor. Photoshop still rules...
