Dear flist,
I need your help again!

Seeing all the pretty icons and banners everywhere I thought about learning to make some myself.
I'm an absolute beginner, never done something like that before, so I would like to know if

A) it is possible to learn such on my own and
B) if I should buy Paint Shop Pro or Adobe Photo Shop??

Thank you for your

Comments

I am thinking about buying paint shop pro. Untill then, I am using this :

Icon maker for dummies.

Icon maker for dummies is exactly what I need. Thank you.
So you think Paint Shop Pro is best for starters?

I have no idea if it's best for starters. But a lot of people seem to use it. Also doylebaby and idrillia use it to make animated icons. That looked very easy.

I have Paint Shop Pro 8 and all banners and icons that I did myself are made with that program. I find it relatively easy to understand and it also has a good 'help' instruction page with little instructions video's to show you what certain tools can do!

Easy to understand is just what I need.
So Paint Shop Pro 8 it is. Thank you!

I think it's upgraded to Paint Shops Pro 10 in the meantime, but the basics are the same! :)

I have both programs, and I started out on Adobe and I like it better that PSP. Everything in PSP seems odd to me, but the ability to use tubes in PSP is cool.

I just ordered Paint Shop Pro 9 for only 14Euro. I think that's a really good price.
I hope I'll be able to handle it.

Klasse! So wie es aussieht werde ich am 19. Mai zu euch kommen.
Dann kannst du mir Nachhilfestunden geben. ;-)
Und dann gehen wir auch endlich mal ins Kino!!!
