| I love photography and really want to do more with it. Currently I have been using picnik, but I would like something with ALOT more options and tools. I've been asking for Photoshop for christmas, but just want to know what your opinions are of that, or if you know of any better ones I could buy |

| Either Photoshop or Fireworks would be the best, probably. |

| We do all of our professional jobs using Photoshop CS2. It is the best program, the one most used by the Pros (Our Photography business has been open since 1980). |

| Photoshop is pretty much the industry standard. It is a good, robust application, but can take a little while to learn (let alone master). The good news is that there are a large number of books that will help make learning the intricacies of Photoshop easier. Make sure if you're a student that you get the educational discount when purchasing it as this will shave quite a bit off the price.Cheap software (or free) isn't as robust but a few good options are: GIMP, Photoshop Elements, Jasc Paint Shop Pro. |

| Yes..I HIGHLY recommend Photoshop! I didn't really want to pay that much money for software (I think it was around $75) but trust me--it's worth it.You can do so much with it. I've had it for almost a year and there's still tons I haven't discovered yet with it. I would also recommend downloading Google's Picasa (it's free). You can edit photos on there too but I mainly use it to keep them organized. |

| Photoshop is the undustry benchmark for photo editing/manipulation. There is no 'better' option but there are similar programs. Personally, I'd rather stick with Photoshop due to the fact that it's considered the best by the pros and there's nothing I haven't been able to do with it.For more tutorials in Photoshop, see this website http://www.impakcreative.com |

Everything About Your Wedding
Wedding Marketplace
Buy and sale all wedding related products.
Where and How to Start?
There’s so much to do, it can be mind-numbing. Don’t worry. I planned and held my first wedding in two months and my second wedding in three months. If you have the luxury of a year or more, feel lucky!
Wedding Invitation
Ideally, invitations should be mailed out 6-8 weeks before the big day to give guests time to make arrangements to attend and RSVP back to you.
Wedding Attire
Where I come from, buying a tuxedo is virtually unheard of. Renting is probably the way to go to realize the ultimate savings on the groom’s attire.
Wedding Flowers
Cheap doesn't mean that your wedding flowers can't be beautiful. All flowers are lovely no matter what they cost.
Wedding Ceremony Decoration
Most wedding ceremonies are short and sweet, so why spend a majority...
Wedding Music
Music for your wedding ceremony could consist of live or recorded performances.
Wedding Photography
Pictures are priceless, and you want to be sure you have plenty of good pictures of your special day.
Wedding Favors
Some brides don’t like the idea of giving gifts to her guests, but we think it’s a nice gesture as a thank you...
Wedding Food
Wedding food can take a huge chunk out of your wedding budget.
Wedding Cake
Your wedding cake is the centerpiece of the reception. It is a scrumptious dessert as well as part of a tradition
Wedding Party
The question of whether or not to serve alcohol at your wedding is one that can cause dissension in the ranks of family.
