Can anyone suggest an OK graphics program to do model skins for less than 100 bars of gold pressed latinum? I see Jasc Paintshop Pro and there are more than one Adobe and Creative products. I hope to do better than Microsoft Paint. What do you guys use?

not sure about model skins specifically

I used to use The Gimp - http://www.gimp.org/

and now i use Paint.Net - http://www.getpaint.net/

gimp is very advanced, and paint.net is more simple, but yet has some advanced things.

I like Paint.Net a lot, and both it and Gimp are perhaps the best free graphics solution.

Photoshop is the industry standard i think and i use it. But its expensive.

Some ppl use gimp
