i use image ready too some times photo shop.... its basicaly the same thing as i would with paint the only difference is is that i can zoom in further so i can be more exact.....of course im a real newb at making kingdom gfx (look at the samurai wand and sai i made =_=) im pretty much use to making like im things and junk i dunno but basically im saying that photo shop is more convienent if you have imaging as a job. and also Adobe Illustrator could possibly be a good choice to if you know how to opperate it. of course i cant say that oppions are wrong im just trying to say each program has its strong points. paint is limited to basic graphics. photo shop is a medium tool used to (of course) edit photo's, a little bit of web stuff and the same pixeling skill as paint. Illustrators strong points are exact and precise lines good for most all graphic's. of course with all the editions that photoshop, image ready and illustrator have they are also hard to work with (especialy illustrator)
