It supports vectors, layers, and will replace paint. What more to love? It will come with longhorn.

Its hard to explain, but you'll see when you download it!

You can get it, and learn about it here:

ARGUMENT FROM CREATION, a.k.a. ARGUMENT FROM PERSONAL INCREDULITY (I)
(1) If evolution is false, then creationism is true, and therefore God exists.
(2) Evolution can't be true, since I lack the mental capacity to understand it; moreover, to accept its truth would cause me to be uncomfortable.
(3) Therefore, God exists.

When Red-Beard and Peg-Leg give you a copy of Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro, it's a little out of its depth. It can't be any worse than Paint, though. At least MS is trying to give more than the bare minimum this time, so hey :huh:

They probably are trying to encourage you to download the flawed SP2 like they do on the majority of their site :huh:

Anyways i dont know how anyone couldnt afford PSP, it costs almost nothing compared to photoshop. Especially you americans. If I can afford it why cant you?

BTW: is this acrylic capable of saving in some good file formats with a good quality picker? Like jpeg, jpeg 2000, gif, png etc. cause im getting damn tired loading up photoshop whenever i just need to save a file as a different file format.

Americans and you can, we dutch can't :cool:
We just crack PSP op Photoshop (like me :p)
But i like accryllic more! w00t

They just want you to download SP2 :huh:
you say it too complicated :huh:

And yes, you can save it more formats... just save them (Export in this case) select your format, then search directory enter name and there you go

Same process for a other format (no restart needed) and also Acryllic starts up really quick! :D at my PC atleast ;)

EDIT: Sorry for the double post, im just out of my bed, and making me a drink :)!

Merg3d for you :) ~CJ
