if you were in college you could get some saweet student discounted software



or you could just do illegal stuff

isnt paint shop pro really cheap?

uhm...

i'm talking about illustrator.

ten times better than psp...



:]

inkscape.org!!!!!

Yeah don't invest in Illustrator unless you know what you're doing and have a passion to do it. Inkscape is a way better decision.

if art is your passion or design I would buy it, I started doing photoshop/illustrator when I was 15 and the things I learned from doing silly tutorials I found online really helped me now that I'm in college for graphic design, I might suggest getting someone to buy it from a college for you its about 1/4 the cost or buy an older version from ebay or something, the changes they've made between are not that detrimental

thanks for the help guys :)

keep the comments coming

I second the student discount recommendation.... and isn't there a student software version (cheaper) that is not the full version but still very good.

i seriously dont have any idea.



Im only in junior high

so I cant get a discount,



but i still love designing things.

its a great way to express yourself.



haha thanks!

I have adobe CS3 design premium student edition, it's exactly the same as the non-student package, just a hell of alot cheaper.



Non-student : £1500 = $3000

Student edition : £200 = $400



Well those were the prices for the UK, I dunno if the exchange rates correspond to the prices in the USA.



The package includes: Illustrator / Photoshop / InDesign / Flash / Fireworks / Dreamweaver and soem other stuff. So it's a steal at the student price. Put it on your Xmas list!

oh my god! thanks!



I downloaded inkscape like some of you guys

told me too, but I am having trouble figuring out

how to turn the design into a thumbnail and turning it

into the large example...
