if u dont wanna spend money on a gfx program, i heard gimp is free. as of now, im using photoshop cs3. some people says photoshop is still better than gimp cause u could do alot more. as of how to do things. when you get the program, mess around and c what tools there is in the program before looking into tuts so u would know what there discussing.

Photoshop is by far the best and most useful program to have for graphics. GIMP is a good free alternative, but with all the cracks on the internet there's really no point. The pen tool is just one of the many tools that Photoshop has.
