I used to be such a Photoshop fan...but now I've found me the GIMP - its free...has the same functionality of Photoshop - & just as tricky if you don't know what you're doing (which I don't).
With the help of my pal google I've been playing with some tutorials & I created my very own challenge junkie blinkie - which I have added to my sig at SE & SBO.
I tried to show you here - but apparently blogger doesn't like gifs (that are on infinite loop) ROFLMAO!!
Anyway if you don't have the dosh for photoshop & want to be able to seriously play around with stuff get yourself the GIMP...it looks a little daunting at first - but there are tutorials galore online & I'm sure there's a help file somewhere that I forgot to download LMAO!!
Oh, I just checked the site & they're bringing out an updated version soon...apparently each one gets a little easier to use...I saw scaleable brushes mentioned...having a problem with that today - but that's cool
OK I really need to get some challenges/comp entries done today - Tai is off at a friends for the arvo - she's hoping to have a "make-over" which invloves painting her nails - too cute!!!
Also wanted to mention that Janine is having a 12 Days of Christmas challenge over at her place (blog) starting Dec 1...I think this'll be a lot of fun - so go & check it out...A Tarisota pack is up for grabs ;o)

Kelly I hope I don't offend anyone but when I saw gimp I giggled like a school girl.....anyway thanks for mentioning the challenge on your blog.....
Oh, Kelly, please tell me what you have been using for tutorials. I've been playing, and am just stumped. I guess the fact that I haven't played in PS either makes it very new to me.
