Perhaps, if more think the way you do, then most professional will be using Photoshop no? And who will be left over to use PSP? The amateurs no? ;) No wonder it's not looking professional then. > This is not to say that a talented person couldn't do better with it, but > if one is doing something serious, they usually turn to Photoshop or > Illustrator even on the PC, I would think.

Being a long time PSP-, and a bit shorter time Photoshop- user, I think I can say that it's a lot of good stuff u can make with PSP. It's the program I use for quick resizing/formatting instead of opening Photoshop. That is of course on my AMD Windows machine, cause on my mac, there's only one program.... :) > I guess I'm just prejudiced and this is a broad generalization but I > always feel I can tell the quality of graphics made on the PC and that it > is never as good as what is made on the Mac.
