Photoshop-like free version for mac???

You can find free full versions if you try. If you would like to save $500+ you could look. If you don't like pirating overpriced things you can just use the trial until it runs out.

i am using the trial version right now... ;)

Photoshop is unbeatable. Unfortunately Aleesh, I am in a similar boat. I had it on my old computer.. still do.. but it is the one not hooked to the internet. Now, my newer computer will not recognise the disk, even with the password and everything.. so I can co-miserate with your non-photoshoppiness. Glad you're getting it though!

ya it's really essential for my magazine... can't create it without photoshop... so i'll just do it.

:P
