Art What program to use

[Stuart]

Ok as you know I started making banners a little while back, And I dont know much about all the different programs and what not. and I want a really good good program, so Im asking all of you experinced banner makers, What program is best to use. I use Psp 7 and I want to know, of the programs out there :)

I've used Paint Shop pro to make alot of my banners in the past (none of which any of u will ever see, their quality is terrible). Also some imaging programs are good.

but Photoshop is the best to my opinion. That's the one I use and am currently useing.

[size=1] Paint Shop Pro can make good banners as long as you know what you're doing [i]and[/i] you keep it simple. But I guess Photoshop would be your best bet.[/size]

Ok soo.. Can I just download photoshop, Or is it somthing I have to buy, and for how much?

[Guest Cee-4]

Well their are ways to download Photoshop, it's just illeagal, and you can't discuss it, PM me and I'll send you the link ;)

But I agree the best 2D graphics editor is Photoshop, but when you get into 3D try 3D's Max, Cinema4D or Lightwave.

I use PS 7.0 for all my banner/signature needs. It is a fantastic program with so much to work with, but I highly recommend looking over some tutorials before jumping in. And, of course, randomly playing around with filters and whatnot. You will be suprised what you can learn in a few months. ;)

Here are some good PS 7.0 sites:
