I was told about a really good paint/photo editor program a few years ago.

It is called Ultimate Paint. Currently up to Version 2.82. I use it a lot and enjoy the image enhancing features. The demo Version only works for 30 days, but it's under $100. They also offer and older Version as freeware, but it does lack some of the newer bells and whistles. Available at:
http://www.ultimatepaint.com/

I recently have found another graphics program that I enjoy. You cannot edit other graphics, but you can generate some very nice graphics. The program is called Fractal Explorer (currently v1.23). For those of you who have not played with fractals before, this will be an experience. The faster the computer the better, because fractals are generated using an array of number sent through a formula and the results generate a series color. This is the chaos theory. I don't understand it all myself, but it seem to me that fractals show a pattern in nature thus meaning that math is the basis of the universe. I guess we could ask mlmbd he is a Physicist. So anyway here is the link:

I just found a really nice program. REAL-DRAW PRO. Look out PHOTOSHOP, you have some real competition. At 1/10th the cost. NICE, I'm telling you!!

The link to d/l the 30 day trial is here. Check it out!

I looked at it as well. I'll probably buy it as soon as I get some extra cash. Which maybe be for another month or so yet. But it looks nice.

It looks like it's rather easy to learn in Real-DRAW. Is that a correct observation?

The more I look at it the more I want it.

Rags, the basic are really easy to pick-up. There is alot of it that isn't real basic. But given that PS7B is pretty involved as well. One of the reasons PS7P is so expencieve. I found Real-DRAW much, much easier to learn. It is as good as PS7P (at $400). And at about $50, it is a steal IMO.

Yeah really. It is a steal if it is easier to learn, just as good, can do just a bit more in it, then you can with PS7P. So I will be buying it ASAP. Thanks for giving the link.
