    Cool ATTN: Graphics artists under Linux

    If you want, you can get the excellent Corel Photo-Paint 9 for Linux absolutely free. Not warez, either, direct from Corel:

    If you have trouble running it after you install, look at the newsgroup. Even though one post says having Wine installed (before install) will cause problems, nothing happened for me. I've currently got it running under Mandrake.

    How does it compare to the GIMP? I use Jasc Paint Shop Pro on Windows for the little graphics work I do (mainly download pictures from digicams), even though I own a copy of Adobe Photoshop...

    I have books for sale: "MCSD in a Nutshell" and "VB Distributed Exam Cram" - PM me for details. Will also trade for a decent ATX Pentium 2 MB/CPU/RAM combo.

    I don't think so. Download the other package and see how it goes (the non-RPM).

    Oh, and PhotoPaint is infinitely easier to use than PSP. It doesn't come at the loss of tools, either. It can read/write PSDs, PNGs, stuff like that.

    If you're confused after you install (no KDE/Gnome menu items, or whatever), type photopaint at the CLi.
