What are some quality free alternatives to Photoshop that we can download?
A lot of people like the features and functionality of Photoshop, but few people like the price tag. You’re not alone thinking about free alternatives to Photoshop. The ones that you pointed to at lifeclever are all online apps. You don’t need to download anything and while they all work with a certain degree of success for quick edits, they’re not ready for prime time as a photoshop replacement. Here are my suggestions for free photoshop alternatives: 1) Gimp is free and really quite good: http://www.gimp.org/ Here is a Gimp Vs. Photoshop article: http://thephotofinishes.com/gimpps3.htm 2) I suggest looking at Photoshop Elements. It has most of the features of Photoshop but costs under $130. I’ve seen it as low as $99. http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshopelwin/?promoid=BPDEM Here is a Photoshop vs. Elements chart to show you which features you’re missing out on: http://simplephotoshop.com/photoshop_elements/photoshopelements_vs_photoshop.htm 3) Photoshop Express is Adobe’s free web
