Re: Graphics Makers

It depends on what you're looking for. If you're looking for something free,  Paint.net is a great bitmap graphics editor for Windows. GIMP is a similar, but more powerful and slightly more difficult editor for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X. (It's mainly a bitmap editor, but I believe it has vector support.)

You can also try looking at more professional editors, like Adobe Fireworks, which is a vector/bitmap editor. I believe several people on Scratch use Fireworks, in fact.

Re: Graphics Makers

Here's a good example of a Fireworks user: RHY. He makes all his own graphics.

I use Gimp, personally, but that's because I like image effects, and free software.

Re: Graphics Makers

I used Xara for some time. It's a very easy to use vector editor, but it's not free. ^^

Well, don't worry about it, the Zara siggy will be back soon, new and improved! ^^ Meanwhile, just do what the sig tells you to. >.>
