Photo editing software questions

I have something free called paint.NET. Apparently you can find it online somewhere. I don't know where specifically, as ours was installed by a friend's husband who fixed our computer a year or so ago. It's not overly fancy or anything, but it's good for resizing and adjusting colour and whatnot. And it's super easy to uninstall, so if you didn't like it for making avatars and such, you wouldn't be out anything.

Is that what you used to make your avatar & signature?

Yes it is. I'm a complete novice at making both, but needed something, so I tried my best. I'm sure the software would do more justice to someone who actually knows what they're doing, though.

The app you are talking about is located here: http://paint.net/

I have used Paint.net before, it's pretty good for a free program! I HATED GIMP, it was so hard to use, I could not find out how to use anything. I use a mix of PSP Dell Edition and Photofiltre. For animation, if that's what you want you can get free Beneton Movie GIF. It's great I make all of my animated av's that way.

These are some Fancier avi's I made with Photofiltre and Beneton Movie GIF, I'm not sure if this is what you want but this is what both programs are capable of together-

I guess I need to do some serious studying. I've been playing with gimp for a couple days now & just can't get it figured out. I need photoshop for dummies. lol

I´m not sure but I just burned a disk of Photoshop to install in my other computer... and apparently it works... I say apparently as I downloaded a newer version but used the presets of my older one... so far so good...

I´m not sure if I can email it... perhaps it´s too big of a file... or I an let you know where I got the newer version... it´s the CS4

I also have the CS2 and Paint shop Pro I guess 9
