Good Mac graphics package without forking out for Photoshop?
Am currently a frustrated PC user. Regular crashes, gradual slowing of performance, error messages, viruses, trojans...grrrr I hate PCs! Anyway, as you probably gathered I want to make the switch to Mac and with rumours that there's a new iMac due for release, now my be the perfect time!!
Anyway, there's a bit of software that I rely on heavily for my webdesign and Wordpress projects called "Ulead Photoimpact" which isn't available for Mac. Don't just use it for photoediting but for creating graphics too (web banners, png images/backgrounds, buttons..the usual web design stuff). So, am wandering whether anybody knows of anything similar that's available for Mac without having to take out a second mortgage to buy Photoshop. Have looked at Photoshop Elements but it doesn't seem to be in the same league as Photoimpact.
I know that you can also run Windows on a Mac. But I'm sick to death of anything Microsoft and once I make the move I never want to have to use Windows again!
Would be grateful for any advice. Please save me from being tied to a PC!
Thanks,
Andy
P.S. Also interested whether there is any good web design software for Mac other than Dreamweaver. Currently use Frontpage for my sins!
