If you want something that works pretty decent for free, go here:

It's an "obsolete" version of PhotoPlusthat doesn't have all the bells and whistles of Photoshop or the newest PhotoPlus, but it gives you a lot of capabilties for free.

Serial: 1045-1207-1122-2567-5785-5871
download working,151MB
JM,I've gone back to the store before when they've given me too much change.
I take nothing,EVER that doesn't belong to me.
but ya know,I'll grab somebody the latest version of Norton if it means it keeps their sysem up and running.
beats a $90 bill at the repair shop.
same way with adobe/macromedia products.
Pshop has been over the $600 range for years.
who in the hell is gonna pay that if they don't even know enough about it to use it?
I've gotten those apps for people years ago before they could afford it free.
well,now that they're successful in careers using that stuff,they can afford to buy it now and do.
but they never would have if it wasn't for a helping hand.
now don't get me wrong,I'm not saying it's legal,moral or even ethical.
however we all have our vices and if jagging the latest copy of Zone Alarm Pro is yours I don't have an issue with it.

I disagree ET.
Guys like you, me, DiT and AP have the knowledge and presence of mind to run a virus scan on anything we find for free. Most users will succumb to greed and download. Next thing they know, they are hosting a warez site on their machine.
Similarly, there are constant requests for specific types of files/programs. While finding "free" versions of the commercial applications, I think we can all agree that, at bare minimum, these are potentially virus riddled.
So, my suggestion is to make a list of the GNU/Freeware versions of all these requests. This will give people a "legit" version of the software they want, and keep this from becoming a "warez" magnet.
I'll start
Adobe Photoshop
Gimp
Moonlight 3
Free trial of PaintShop Pro
Norton Anti-Virus
Freeware AVG
I use the commercial version for servers - its great
AntiVir
Seen some good results. You have to manually update.
Avast
VCatch
Firewalls
Zone Alarm
Note - can be buggy.
Sygate
Outpost
Windows XP users can get a decent firewall for free by upgrading to
Service Pack 2.
The better solution for broad-band users is to get a router
Spyware Prevention/removal
Crap Cleaner
Designed to remove temp files and cookies. Not really a spyware
tool, but a good idea none the less.
Free 30 day trial of Spy Subtract
CoolWeb Shredder
AdAware
Spybot
Firefox Browser. Not using IE can be the best prevention.
Operating Systems
If you don't want to buy for a modern operating system, there are still options for you. However, you will have to make sure the applications you want to run will run on these. And the setups range from the simple to the downright confusing.
Debian Linux
Mandrake Linux
Redhat Linux
Slackware Linux
SUSE Linux
FreeBSD
Its a start. I'm sure others will want to add to it.

^^^ good links.
verbal, if you use stuff for a living then I'd highly recommend buying it and then registering it. If you get PShop 7 or later, they can nail your ass with phony reg #'s.
If you are using it for business purposes then you really aren't paying for it as it's a tax write off.

I purchased a cheap ass scanner for $100 and it came with PhotoShop. There's no way in hell I would pay any more for it since I use it for personal use. You might look into something like that...
I hated PhotoShop the first time I used it. NOT user-friendly! Just a few months ago, I created a family picture using clip art and photographs. I would erase the heads off the clip art, and attach a head from a photograph onto it. There are 12 people in the picture and each object had to be placed where I wanted it before I moved on to the next item. It was a major pain in the ass trying to get it put together because once I'd get about 10 or 11 family members on the picture, I'd run out of room and basically have to start all over. I had about 20 versions of the damn thing because I saved it after every addition to keep from starting from scratch.
I didn't have a manual for it and the only way I learned how to use it is by playing around with it.
