well, it depends on you will be using the program for. my boyfriend has been a professional photographer for almost 25 years and does a lot of graphic design work. he uses adobe photoshop. ive seen what he can do with it ~ and its just absolutely amazing. but expensive. if you dont need really sophisticated software, go with the freeware. that should probably do ya just fine for most intents & purposes.

I almost always go with the Freeware or Shareware.
I know there will be those that argue "you get what you pay for" but it's been my experience that I can usually find something just about as good for free.
I guess it comes down to personal preference. I'm frugal. What can I say?:)

GIMP in my opinion. Unless you're doing professional work don't go near Photoshop.
Is there a way to blot out a black background on a Paint.net image?

You're reading Between (photoshop), (paint.net) and (GIMP) which one of these would you recommend i get? i know PSCS3 is a popular graphic program, but carries a hefty price tag. but the other 2 are free. what do you think?
