There's also much useful stuff on the low-end side. If you're just working for a website or your Inkjet printer, take a close look at Adobe's Photoshop Elements. It's limited to RGB color mode and you'll not be able to work with seperate channels, but besides this it's almost like Photoshop, for less than $100. Also, for a beginner the Wacom Graphire tablet is okay. Not that big, but better than painting with a mouse. Oh, and you'll get that 3-button mouse, too. Did anyone mention GraphicConverter? Maybe the best shareware app ever. http://www.lemkesoft.com/us_index.html Last tip: Buy Mac magazines. There's much useful stuff on the CDs, and sometimes you get a nice, unlimited full version of a professional programm. Some apps I got for free are iView Multimedia, Canvas 6 (wohooo, creating PDFs for $0,00) and Freeway 2.0. HTH, Chrisso -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
