Which art program do you use?

Heh, take a look at this then, I do think these people qualify as artists, don't you?:http://browse.deviantart.com/digitalart/?order=9

yes, i mean for sigs an the like sorryhave you done any stuff like that?

Just these http://gabrielnox.deviantart.com/I'm not really into it, just wanted to see if I could do it ^^And you're right, nobody should think of themselves as an artist when it comes to sig, unfortunetly on all the graphics forum's most would disagree with you, s'why I left.

Photoshop. I have tried CorelDraw in the past (although they are different types).

isn't hand drawing is better than Photoshop and GIMP Programs? :p

Considering most people now a days draw it into Photoshop, no.

fuselight · #65isn't hand drawing is better than Photoshop and GIMP Programs? :p

YES WAY BETTER!!! (well that's for me)
but I think it makes you feel better when you finish it

Heh Hand Drawings are more better than Photoshop.... True My Outcome Is not Better or near like Photoshop & GIMP Outcomes but in drawing we have everything on our own... Color/Pencils and etc. we use it and gave at least 3 hours for Best try.... I have made Kyogre's Painting and Cloud Strife's Painting xD It looks awesome. It is in my collection of Hand Drawings :D

Wow, paint.net is much better than Photoshop with the plug-ins I have now, heheheheheheh....

Replying to #69

Maybe I'll check that program out as well.

You have to manually download such awesome plug-ins

Replying to #71

That's fine. I'll just ask to point me in the right direction when and if I download it.

Loonylionand just to confuse the vector vs raster debate, into which category does Corel painter fall? I have my own ideas, just interested to see what people think.

Corel Painter is a freak of nature! :P It uses XML? I believe, so it behaves like vector since the images are a series of coordinates, but the final result is raster. Might be wrong though.

I use Photoshop CS3 and GIMP. GIMP isn't bad but it's a bit complex to use IMO. So I usually stick with Photoshop

Paint Shop Pro 7

Does anybody here use Illustrator?

not regularly. I have used it though.

Is it hard to use compared to Photoshop and Gimp?

its very different.

I'd say the complexity of getting around all of the tools is about the same. I've used both, Illustrator briefly.
