Does anyone know of some free software that is similar to photoshop? I'm looking for something that could run on my crap pc but still edit well.

nothing is similar to photoshop (that I've had in my experience.) But I suppose their are ways to get it for free. Or unless your some code cracking wiss head, you should just buy the program.... which is a ***** to save for when you only have a part time job.

Alright, I was hoping i wouldn't have to bend the laws but i guess i'll have to. Oh yah and bear share is not very good. It may be fast but it sticks TONS of ads on ur pc. It's too much of a hassle for me. I'll stick with the others.

Perfect Sin

I was just siting the well known.

Bearshare also downloads spyware on your PC which then turn into viruses.

So stick with Kazaa Lite or Limewire.

yes they may not be the greatest but limewire is simple and easy and pain in someways but at least it doesnt install spyware and download things you dont want. but be carefull because it trys to upload movies if you rip them to pc with it on.

Wow, nobody said anything about the best free and open-source alternative:
The GIMP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_GIMP)

That said, I prefer Paint Shop Pro to Photoshop.

Not sure if I'm alone on this, but I find GIMP petty hard to use, especially with the way the layers work and the number of windows.

I'm not sure since I've used it on Linux, but I have heard that the Windows version has some window problems. Still, it's some pretty good software that is truly free.

The GIMP truly rocks. Go get it. Now. Yes, it has some weird window problems (partially becuase it was designed for Linux), but it is the best free editor you will ever find.

no the crack genertor most people have to get photoshop cs2 free can generate the activation also. the free trial will stop you when thirty days is up so dont try it. and for programs used for downloading zipped files to me winrar is the best try it out.

It doesn't really matter anymoere...i've fixed the problem with downloading gimp and I'm going to just use photoshop until the 30 days run out...then i'll switch over to gimp.

good idea! you can also just uninstall the program and reinstall starting the free trial over.

apparerntly adobe puts a file in your computer so when you install it again the

I'm too much off a nice and honest guy to be involved in things I think is wrong :lol:

my tip to get photoshop, go to a university store and they sell the software for cheap
for example university of toronto and university of alberta both sell it for $75 USD

Most programs keep trail expiry times in the registry. To access it, go to Start -> Run -> regedit, and make sure not to mess anything up! :)
