[99shassan]

What is the best image editor? Is it Adobe Photoshop? What do you recommend?

Yup, Adobe kick ass if you know how to use it ( not my case :( ) :lol: :lol:

Adobe is good for the advanced graphic designer.

If I were you I would get FireWorks frist (or Paint Shop Pro) and get the hang of it, the slowy introduce yourself to Photoshop.

My daughter is hopefully going to study Art & Design and Graphic Design at college next September, while my son (who was 14 on Friday) wants to study IT and art/graphics amongst other stuff.
We have PaintShop Pro v8 installed on two computers (v7 on the third) and I bought two cheap graphics tablets last weekend.
They both want me to install Photoshop, which I could do (v7), but I really don't know if there's any advantage in doing so, as all the plugins work in PSP.

A couple of months ago I would've said PSP, but now I'm not so sure! :)

Photoshop is AWESOME!! I haven't used illustrator much, but that's not image editing, it's vector graphics.

If you're worried about price or not doing something illegal, try the Gimp.
The Gimp Homepage (http://www.gimp.org/the_gimp.html)
Easy Installers for Windows (http://www2.arnes.si/~sopjsimo/gimp/)

Blender 3D (http://www.blender3d.com/) for 3D modeling (free)

Paint Shop Pro is good, but I much prefer Photoshop.

Fireworks MX 2004 and Photoshop.

[j4y3m]

Photoshop is the best no doubt.

Fireworks is more for website imaging.
Photoshop is more for professional printed artwork.
Paint rules.


EDIT - I recommend Photoshop, btw.

[johannes001]

Use both Fireworks MX 2004 & photoshop.
Fireworks is more for the web development style of image editing .
Whereas photoshop is more for advanced image editing/creating.
photoshop is the far more powerful and tend to find myself using it for the majority of the image editing i do.
