| 55188 | 2002-06-19 10:46:00 | Photoshop <www.adobe.com PaintShopPro <www.jasc.com and the GIMP <www.gimp.com GIMP is free. Microsoft Photo Editor is good as well. JM |

| 55191 | 2002-06-19 11:15:00 | Hi Ray, Did you get any software with the scanner? I got Ulead Photo Express (with my scanner)and MGI Photosuite (with my digital cam). I find they are pretty similar really and cover the tasks you are looking for so i would recommend either - i have also heard praise through here about The Gimp and another one Ad? can't quite remember the name sorry?Anyway hope that helps. | Guest (0) | ||

| 55193 | 2002-06-19 13:17:00 | If yer running windozzze, then ya already got one. Its called Pain(t). Its under start -> programs -> accessories. Its small, so it loads fast. It doesnt supoort those nasty plugins, so there is no configuring to worry about. Its easy to use cos there are only 2 brushes (like who needs gazillions of brushes anyway?). You only have 1 undo so you don't have to worry about memory considerations. It only saves files as bitmaps (*.bmp) so you don't have to worry about converting between formats. But that's not all! Its Free!* *(with your purchase of any of Micro$oft's .)? Windoze .)? sloperating systems) |
