Well, I see you have already received some comments relative to GIMP. I have been using GIMP since it came out a few years back and I use it with a Gnu/Linux op system. It does take a bit of time to really get along with it, but this is certainly true of PS and others. Gimp is an open source program and totally free. I highly reccomend it to everyone that might have problems purchasing the expensive PhotoShop.

I love GIMP. I’ve used it for 3-4 years. I also have Photoshop, but I like GIMP better.

I’ve used gimp for many years and I love it. I use it on my work PC and on my home mac. It absolutely does have transparent layers. I FULLY recommend the program.

Using Ctrl+ Instead of Command+ Shortcuts is standard for most X11-based programs on a Mac. This is because X11 runs on many computers – most of which do not have a Command/Apple key. The shortcut keys are familiar to people who use other programs on whichever platform they’re using (be it Windows or X11).

As for the capabilities of GIMP, I haven’t used it on Mac recently but on Linux and Windows it’s been suitable for my needs, as well as for the more simple needs my parents have.
