I'm almost certainly going to be buying myself a copy of Photoshop Elements soon. I've been using Paint.net for a long time but it's another program that's not colour aware and therefore useless for wide gamut monitors. I hope i'm right in saying that everything i could do in PDN, i can also do in Elements?
Perhaps someone who has used both can chime in. What do you guys use and why?

I used both. Paint.NET is a basic image editing software. I also used GIMP, it is really good but there are some features it lacks. Yes, photoshop essentials is indeed the best, as I has all the features and tools needed for image editing
Press thanks if I helped

Re: What image editing software do you use?
I'm too poor for PS, so I use GIMP. It works for what I need to do, which isn't that much.
I use Lightroom for basic adjustments, and Photoshop for detailed ****.
Re: What image editing software do you use?
Corel Paint Shop Pro X and MS Paint
Full Adobe CS5.1 Master Collection, GIMP is still installed, haven't used it in ages.
For photo editing I use Photoshop with Nik Colour Efex. My photo editing usually involves a moderate to large bit of retouching, so Elements is insufficient. I also tend to use Lightroom if it's just regular corrections.

Photoshop (the whole Creative Suite, actually) CS2 is free now (has been for a few months) on the Adobe website.
http://www.adobe.com/downloads/cs2_downloads/index.html
It does work on W7 x64, with some work.
So i dropped the hammer on Elements 11. It's taking me longer to get anything done while i learn it's intricacies, but on the whole it's growing on me.
Made use of the ability to create GIFs today so it's proving it's worth already!

You can try GIMP, it's basically a free version of photoshop... wait that sounds like warez, the makers made it free
GIMP is the best way to go if you're looking for freeware. I can vouch for the fact that it isnt warez. Granted, it's not nearly as loaded to the gills with features as photoshop, but for basic stuff like icons and theme editing, it'll mostly get the job done.
paint.net can do a lot of what photoshop can and its free
Gimp is best if you want to work with alpha blending, but the learning curve is steep, otherwise (if your art doesn't have a lot of curves, you do your own pixel art, or you don't mind aliasing) anything above paint will do.
I personally use Krita from the KDE app library. It's a bit more powerful than your standard image editor. I don't really like GIMP much because of some stupid decisions on the part of the programmers that make the program a hard tool to use if you're doing pixel art or just about anything, for example, having to resize layers after you've re-sized the canvas or that damn erase tool, I want an erase tool that erases, not gradually blurrs out, erasing a single pixel is a pain because it'll also diffuse the surrounding pixels. I'm sure there's a way around it, but it's just not intuitive.
My understanding is that paint.net
was written by a guy in college who didn't wanna pay for photoshop 7.
My source..his website.
I think he also mentions something about paint.net being able to take photoshop plug-in. Something I don't think GIMP can do.
I just finished a Digital Photography class using paint.net. Prior to the class my digital editing was all done with MS paint. Transferring to paint.net was not that hard. Remember that ctrl+Z is your best friend in the world.
I tried GIMP before getting paint.net. At the time the learning curve was higher than I was willing to pay attention to.
Both are free. Both are highly suitable as replacements for Photoshop.

I really would like this rounded font that I see in a lot of the "post your homescreen" posts. (please see attachment)
if this is running on 2.2 milestone?
make the font bigger
Many thanks
I’m using “Sony Sketch” and it looks great. However little too small so how do I make the font size bigger?
Tried “spares parts” but doesn’t work and app called “Font Size” from the market is not free, so there any FREE APP that allows you to change Font Size or is there a way to do this with ADB?
if I actually want a smaller font.
and it can be used in all applications. eg its Home screen or browser.

Just to let you know
Hi Love your thread
Have been mucking about with fonts all day.
What it doesn't mention in the thread is that you can goto any free font web site and download ANY .ttf file (as a zip, then extract and drop into the .fontchanger folder)
this means that the font choice is endless!!!! oh and be seriously cool.
Hope you don't mind, had to share the good news with my fellow streakies on the Dell Streak forum.
Thanks for the post has made my weekend (I know sad lol !)

What? Photoshop, a bitmap application, works with vectors? Explain this to me. I am stumped.

Photoshop Touch is bitmap = pixel based
Adobe Ideas is Vector based.
I got the Photoshop last night and was so impressed by it I bought collage this morning and proto an hour ago. The cloud integration is amazingly fluid and easy to use. The implementation of google image search built in saves a lot of time from having to first download from the web to your os and then upload to photoshop.Collage has an amazing feature whereyou can crop any image straight from the [email protected] This is a high class set of apps that can bring out the inner artist in anybody.
I watched this video a few weeks ago -

I was so impressed by that and the preview video on the Adobe site that the minute I got the email saying it was available, I purchased it without hesitation. The only limitation is that it can only save files to 1600px. Excellent app!

as far as I get it, the photos & stuff are (of course) pixel & not vector, but while working it processes vector for selection & things, I found it really damn precise if it's not vector
I was disappointed to find out that Adobe Ideas wasn't a mobile version of Illustrator which I had thought it would be, I read "vector based" in the description and was stoked, but found out it was just another drawing application that can transfer over to Illustrator as a vector...not quite the same thing. I wanted point manipulation on the Xoom...would have been really bad ass to do my vectors on a tablet anywhere.
I was reallylooking forward to using photoshop but since it cannot open local files its pretty much a huge dealbreaker for me. Once they add the ability to edit local PSDs ill be jumping right on it..

you can both open your .psd in tablet & opening your .psdx (new format for adobe PS touch) in your pc.
here is how
but few people reported when opening .psd formats in tablet, all the layers are flattened. (for me, it happens only for heavy .psd files)
I know you can do it from the "creative cloud" but I would like to do it from local files like SD card or flash drive.. that would be nice

P.S an option to export to different formats directly
I'm assuming you guys have used Sketch Book Pro? That has a pretty decent PSD export tool (which works with dropbox which I prefer and where all the rest of my stuff is). I agree with the different export ability too.
I got it and it doesn't seem to be working for me

What seems to be the problem?
I'm loving Android.
Oooh, so much.
Even more I'm loving the amount of possible customization we're given from Cyanogenmod!!
Which takes me now to theming.
Ok, so we all like it and we all love to make our minis look like they're not that mini.
I've found a very valid theme and I'm loving it to bits, but I just can't cope with the images shown during calls.
Yeah, cause apparently we use mobile phones to call people. Sometimes.
So, i went, extracted the theme apk, found the files i've been tch-tch-ing about, edited them with photoshop (didn't even bother to make anything too fancy, just some diagonal 1px stripes over a background colour plus a black gradient fading it all to black) and put them back in the apk with 7zip.
...And of course the installer spat it back in my face.
I knew it wasn't going to be that easy and i seriously only have to change 4 pngs from the whole theme (i'm fine with everything else!), so I wouldn't really want to go and make a whole new theme by myself (maybe later one day?).
So, is there a way for me to overcome this heartbreaking problem and make my life ABSOLUTELY perfect?
Thank you guys in advance, you seriously rock our android world and i'll throw in a strawberry cheesecake if you manage to give me any advices.
Peace

Now, managed to install the apk and everything. Does anybody know though why dialer would fc after i edited the call background pngs?
I also edited some other parts of the theme but they don't seem to be giving me any problems.
Do i have to save them in some specific format? After i edited them in photoshop i saved them as indexed but i did notice they were slightly bigger than the source files...
Never mind. A reboot solved the problem. Have to say, i'm pretty happy now.
Thanks once more buddies!

If you are comparing AMOLED to LCD, you will never get the same godawful, ugly, inaccurate colors as Samsung AMOLED. Also, the contrast won't be the same. Different screen technologies.
