Graphics

Hi guys, so for those of you that don't know, graphics are images for the computer, like this v

THAT banner we have here is an example of a graphic.

So I had an idea to make mood buttons for us, the problem is, I don't know which programs are good for mac, and secondly, I never have done it before, it will take practice until the mood buttons look as least decent.

For those of you that have macs and who make graphics, do you know any good programs for macs?

And just in case you are wondering, my mac version is 10.5.8.

The two I would recommend are Photoshop and GIMP. Both can be used on the Mac. The only difference is that GIMP is free and Photoshop is not. If you are willing to pay the money or know someone who can donate you Photoshop (or if you are willing to use a cracked version), go with Photoshop. If not, go with GIMP. It has many of the same capabilities as Photoshop.

Well I don't really want to pay anything right now, so GIMP it is.

I already downloaded it, and I'm just playing around with it to get the feel of it.

And thank you so much for the help DH! ^^

What buttons are you trying to replace?

I'm not trying to replace anything, I just want to make mood buttons for the GOF, why did you want some graphics replaced?

I saw this on other forums where they make character mood buttons where they have the character and the titled mood.

I'll give an example here:

That's all I was doing.
