Paint Shop Pro (http://www.corel.com/servlet/Satellite/ … 4951547051)

I used a long time ago when it was owned by Jasc. It is almost as good as photoshop but a lot cheaper.

Assuming we are talking about buying

You could get corel painter X, you should try a free demo of it, its pretty much freehand painting though..

I have painter X, its more user friendly than cs3 (imo) but with less features

Hell, I'll be nice and give you the link to aviary.
Click Here (Aviary Phoenix Image Editor)

They're pretty much on CS2/3 level in terms of what it will let you do.

I love this. I've been using PSP since '94. It's not quite as powerful, but a lot cheaper (as mentioned above) and the interface is more intuitive.

Painter is nice for what it is, but it is far from a substitute for Photoshop in terms of what the programs do.

Photoshop CS3 Student Edition is only 160 euro's here in the Netherlands. Can't be that more expensive on your side of the big pond?

Why not get Adobe Photoshop Elements? It takes all the best features of photoshop and puts it into one program. It's not nearly as expensive as the real creative suite.

or you could just crack it.....
adobe KNOWS people pirate there shit and there okay with it because they know kids like your brother need it for school and cannot afford it. They let this happen because they know in the future they will BUY there product when they have there own business/ enough money.

Paint.net is what I use(Along with PSCS3)

I liek paint.net cuz I'm used to it, and it loads up faster, and it's free.
