Best Free Graphics Programs?

CoolBradG
I know of 3 Free Graphics Programs. They are Pixia and GIMP and Photo Plus. I used to use Pixia before I got Paint Shop Pro 8. GIMP and Photo Plus I never really got how to use and I didn't wanna take time to learn. Does anyone know of anymore Free Graphics Programs? If so please reply and tell about them.

Shame on you! Stop giving people bad ideas. They could go to jail if they do that! X_X Pretend like you didn't hear that and use the Free Programs above. biggrin.gif So anyway if anyone know of any other free programs please tell them in here. See you can get trials of paint shop pro and photo shop but they run out pretty fast which stinks. *sigh*

Honestly, I think it's almost impossible to find a 'good' free graphic design program. I searched for a very long time, and I really got nothing. If somebody needs something decent, get Paint Shop Pro. And Photoshop is even better (the best, in my opinion...and what I've got).

I dunno, maybe I'm biased. After all, I've been using Photoshop for quite a while now...and nothing comes close.

But GIMP is also cross platform. Which is a big bonus in my eyes.

GIMP is an excellent graphic program, and it's free! It can do many things like Photoshop, but it doesn't come with that price tag. But I feel that the user interface is not as friendly though. But it's free and highly functional.

Aew, I remember GIMP. My bro installed it on the downstairs CPU. I never really gave it a chance to get a part of me tongue.gif

But honestly, if u really want the works:

Photo shop or PSP for images

Well, looking at all the GIMP recommendations, I feel that it is compulsory to add some more...

Dogwaffle--Paint on the computer the same way you paint on a canvas, with oil! Really FUN to use.

Pixia--Japanese graphic freeware. Wonderful photoretouch and design.

Wings 3D--Wings 3D is a subdivision modeler inspired by Nendo and Mirai from Izware. It is possible to assign materials, vertex color, UV coordinates and textures, but there will be improvements in those features before Wings goes 1.0. There is no support in Wings for doing animations.

Blender--Blender, the open source software for 3D modeling, animation, rendering, post-production, interactive creation and playback (see the features and screenshots). Available for Windows, Linux, Irix, Sun Solaris, FreeBSD or Mac OS X under the GNU Public License.
Note: Not for the faint-hearted. But POWERFUL.

Metasequoia--Metasequoia is a polygon modeler for 3DCG and game development. It provides you efficient modeling works. It is very easy to use and learn. Even a beginner of 3DCG will be able to manage it one day. It runs on Windows 95/98/NT4.0/2000/XP.
Note: Support for English is not complete.

Eve--The incredible shrinking vector graphics editor. Download and try EVE you need to see the power to believe it. Now: be prepared to have your socks blown off with the new Web Edition of EVE! Unzip anywhere and run, no installation required. Tutorial included.

Zoner Draw 3--Zoner Draw 3 is an ideal graphics program for a broad range of applications. Use it to create powerful brochures and leaflets, as well as illustrations for documents, business cards, price tags, letterheads, postcards, signs, blueprints, greeting cards, and more. One new feature of the product is the ability to create graphics for Internet presentations, including vector animations.

gimp.org has GIMP tutorials. You might also want to check out this nice big list of GIMP tutorials. If nothing else, just Google "GIMP" and "tutorial". Hope these help!

Well you can't get anything worth downloading free these days.

Anyways, even though it's a 30 day trial, there's Graphics-gale.

I also like mIcrosoft Gif Animator: That's totally free..


see I only mentioned two, probably 2 already mentioned.
