Paint.NET is the closest I know of.

Unless you're willing to pirate Photoshop and/or Illustrator, that is. Although I don't know how easy or not so much that would be, since the only thing I've sincerely pirated in my life was Sony Vegas 7.

Why would I change my mind? I've been wanting to do this for 3-4 years now, it's just that now that I'm going into high school, I want the CS5 package and/or a tablet to draw with.

CS5.5 is 399.99 USD... I think I can wait. I don't like pirating. It makes me feel guilty for taking the software... :<

@Tablets

They suck. My bro has been drawing for 8 years and he hasn't used since he first did on June 5th.

"pretty much every kid wants to be a game designer or graphic designer"

*when they're younger

If they still want to be that position when they're older, well, that's a different story altogether.

Reminds me of the one story about the kid who never gave up his dream to be a firefighter.
Happened to end up being one of the most successful firefighters, ever.

So yeah, point being, neigh-sayers gon' neigh-say.

This. Is probably the one thing holding me back from pirating anything serious.

yeah when they are a sophomore in college

"Reminds me of the one story about the kid who never gave up his dream to be a firefighter.

reminds me of the millions of kids who wanted to be veterinarians

none of them became veterinarians

@Hi Yah but I have actually done work in the past on my dad's laptop, because he has CS4 for work. Can't link to deviantART, though.

"Gimp."

No, no, no. GIMP is BAD.

Just no. Honestly, you are seriously way better off just using Paint.net.

There are debates about pirating in World Wide Chat and scripters forum. Even mods like XLEGOX and anaminus debated on them.... some scripters support pirating, some are against.

@Kick Started with Paint.NET. Then went on to GIMP as a more powerful tool.

Have you actually worked toward being a biologist?

Have you ever actually worked toward any career path, for that matter?

Neigh-sayer.
