Answers That I've Given

Please and Thank You!

My Answer:
The cheapest price that my local stores have ever offered me for a Photoshop CS4 Extended is $199.99 USD, which isn't very cheap at all. And I do not know of a reliable way to obtain Photoshop for $60 USD (as for unreliable ways, yes, I do know of some, but I will not mention them on here [not worth the risk]).
However, I do know of a great alternative that you can use: GIMP.
GIMP is totally free; you wont' have to pay a dime for it. It has as many features as Adobe Photoshop and just as complex. It may look confuse at first, but after a few time playing around with it, it'll become somewhat user-friendly.

I've used GIMP for almost three years now and totally satisfied with it. I've also used Adobe Photoshop (at school), and haven't found anything that I can do in Photoshop but not in GIMP yet.
GIMP is also very popular among image editor users. You can get help with it easily.
(Rating: 5) thanks ! i'll look into it
