Is Paint.NET easier to work with than CS3? Just wondering what photoshop to go with when my CS3 trail ends.

Not as good as CS3, but its free. The biggest features it has is layering, lasso select/deselect, effects, adjustments, and hexidecimal color select. I like the save feature. You can save the image as a .pdn, .bmp, .gif, .jpg, .jpeg, .jpe, .jfif, .png, .tif, .tiff, .tga, or .dds. You can also adjust the file size and quality of the image when you save, which is very helpful when making avatars.

 

Thanks for the info Euro.

You're welcome. I'm still looking for a way to make animated .gifs....

 

You guys should check out GIMP, I don't use it, but alot of people I work with say its a very good program. It allows you to do some GIF animations, and is like Photoshop, but free. I however like the Adobe Suites, they are worth the money.
