my guess: Sales Manager, makes around 120k a year. Just stopped by on his way back from golfing with his clients. Not a social conservative, but doesn't want to cede a penny more than he thinks he has to.

I admit I have PS, but I also use GIMP


GNU Image Manipulation Program

GIMP is free as it is part of the GNU (A recursive acronym: "GNU's Not Unix&quot Project which develops software that is free for anyone to copy, edit, and distribute.

PS not only is expensive, but requires a new computer operating system about every second release.

I do run windows 7 so I think I could use PS. I just wouldn't use it very often and almost always for stuff like this.

And a WHOLE lot cheaper. It's a good intro into Photoshop and sometimes Adobe offers a cheap 'upgrade' path to the full version.
