On a happier note, last night I downloaded the trial version of Photoshop 7. Granted, it'll only last for 30 days and it took me close 2 hours to download it but its worth it. I wish I could somehow buy a copy of the trial version. I don't need all the nifty filters and stuff, I just need a decent resizer. The added ability to actually draw in it is useful too. Much of my new stuff is scanned in and pieced back together and looks nice. I still have some colored stuff I want to scan while I have the equipment but other than that...

Unfortunately, Photoshop 7 is currently running at $609.00. They offer a dumb downed version for around $300 but only to students.

Anyone out there still a student and willing to purchase a student copy for me? I will (of course) pay and I'll even make you dinner for your trouble...

I'd appreciate it. The best price I've found online for it is $474.00. Let me know if they can beat that. I also have friends at CMU looking. MIT doesn't seem to have a software store.

That's well within my budget for this. Anyone ever try these people?

1. I tried this once, but maybe you'd have better luck - See who's selling Photoshop 6 on ebay. It's nearly as nifty as 7, unless you really need special Targa interpolation.

2. If you just need barebones stuff, can you download Photoshop Elements for frre (or cheap) form Adobe?

3. Are you using a Mac or PC? There are some cool free (i think) PC stuff, like GIMP. I did at one point download some free Mac stuff, I may be able to send you a pointer to.

GIMPs not bad but I'm pretty sure it only works on linux/unix derivatives...

Do you know how Elements differs from the full Photoshop? The adobe web page has lots of words but doesn't really say much about it...
