Yes, what graphic software do you use and what version?
I use paint shop pro 7.04 and that’s all I’ve got too. I love it a lot! I've had it for quite a while now. I use it everyday and my family thinks I’m weird because of it. lol but I love it anyway.

Yes it's really best to the photoshop - I use it for making textures, it's really the best free program out there for creating unique textures for anything from just a tile background to textures for pro 3d rendering in 3d studio or something else...

Photoshop CS is the only way to go. It is the most advanced graphic design program and pretty simple to learn and use. I have been using photoshop for over a year and love it!

I'm using PSP 7. I was gonna upgrade but didn't have money. lol. Its simple and easy for some effects. If you want the best money can buy you should get photoshop its way more advance but little big and slow of course. lol.

lets seee I've tried GIMP and its not that good. Sort of crappy program. And that's all .

Photoshop CS is the only way to go for a powerful image editor. You can create complete site designs with it, as I did with www.ds-portal.net ; which used dreamweaver mx 2004. For photos, Paint Shop Pro is functional too.

How about Corel Draw? I haven't read much about Corel Draw here at Trap 17 forum.

I am using Adobe Photo Shop 7, I am still a beginner though. My cousin is using it at his job and I am amazed by how he uses it. He could do so much techniques to enhance a photograph. He could even make a black and white photo into colored. wow!

GIMP (Gnu Image Manipulation Program)

Photoshop CS is the best graphic program in the univerce... but it is a little bit high in price. So for free graphic programs I would have to recommend GIMP. It is a little complex at first but once you learn how to use its interface it is a really good and useful program... considering that it cost absolutly nothing.

I’m not much of a designer or artist, but I get around

I use Photoshop 7.0 for all my graphix, but sometimes, nothing can beat MS Paint I can’t actualy make anything good in Photoshop, but I get around when it comes to processing photographs, or maybe some light alteration, if you know what I mean

And for icons (and believe me, I have NO talent whatsoever), I use a little piece of software that I made myself (ripped it from Microsoft and enhanced it a bit )

That's my carrier as an artist

Adobe Creative Suite & Macromedia Studio MX 2004. You can do almost anything regarding graphic design with these two packages and won't go wrong as it is used by graphic design industry.

You can have power to create your design.

You can swap files with printers

Other designers can open your files.

Paint Shop must die!!!
I recommend you to use Photoshop CS (I will not say you something about its price) This programm is very useful if you are professionaly desinger. It has a lot of plugins and different filters. Also you can use Macromedia Fireworks MX-this programm can work with vector and bitmap images. It better use to making graphics for websites.
And about GIMP...but...i don`t use it so long.
MS Paint- you must love it!!!. The best graphic soft for a day!!! =)

Photoshop CS is expensive!!
but it's worth it. i don't use anything except that.
Quite soured on Corel. though the suite in version 12 has some nice things, i'd choose photoshop over Corel anyday.
One thing that i feel tips the scales overwhelmingly in favor of photoshop, is that there are thousands of plugins available for photoshop, and only a handful for Corel.
