What is a fairly inexpensive but good graphic design software to use?

I'm starting my own website and need to create a logo and design some images and I need a good software program that isn't too costly.


Thanks so much!

What is a fairly inexpensive but good graphic design software to use?
For Photoshop-type raster/pixel image work, Gimp at www.gimp.org


For Illustrator-type vector graphics, Inkscape. www.inkscape.org





Both of these are free OpenSource software.





There are also various smaller aps that use clip art to help you make logos, do a search for that sort of software. They tend to be rather limited.
Reply:well, paint is probably the cheapest......but what I have found to be the most effective, is to get a trial version of photoshop CS3, and get a reliable source to get a patch or a keygen from. The same goes with Flash, and Illustrator (I found Illustrator to be a great special effects program to couple with Photoshop.
Reply:Macromedia Fireworks. It works great. It might be a little confusing tho, so there are online tutorials if you get confused. And its pretty cheap.
