Am I the only person on the list who doesn't like PSP? I tried it, but=20
couldn't stand it. Much prefer a mix of vector and bitmap capabilities. =20
Fireworks seems very good (I'm on day 2 of my 30 day trial!) however rather=20
expensive. I have found Satori (www.satoripaint.com) who produce WebFX2000=20
and FilmFX3 which seem to be pretty good (the 64-bit version of FilmFX was=20
used to create some of the scenes in the Hollywood blockbuster 'The Matrix')=

but best of all they are cheap (FilmFX3 is on offer at =A349/$75). Very=20
tempting, especially as it is receiving very good reviews, such as:
"Amazing functionality leaves market leading photoshop looking comparatively=20
outdated, underpowered and overpriced. Here's your chance to see the graphic=

engine of the future".
