Mark W Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 It wouldn't be 100% ideal, but I could think of a shitload worse ways of doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JD™ Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 What would be best but not have to pay for the software? MSPaint. Stick with Photoshop if you can't afford to go for some proper design software Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 In fairness, with the Interwebs, you don't really have to pay for any software I hate using the text tools in Photoshop, so I'd probably use Illustrator, but it's no biggie either way. Just use Photoshop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale-Hill Posted May 27, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 MSPaint. Stick with Photoshop if you can't afford to go for some proper design software Thanks the reason i thought i would do it on photoshop is because i got it free.

Just use Photoshop True, but I'm certainly not going to be the one to give directions on how to do it! Jason does not endorse software piracy, and nor does trials-forum.co.uk but one of your mates will definately know how to "source" some very good value software Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark W Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 Yeah. It's 100% illegal* to download the 30-day trial copy of any of the CS3 products from Adobe.com and then download any kind of keygen or serial numbers from websites to then 'crack' the trial copy you downloaded. *But totally f**king awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

br3n Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 slightly back on track, if you open an image which is b&w photoshop will assume you want to keep it that way and will open your file in monochrome palette (black and white) as peoiple have said, if you want to add colour you can change it to rgb/cmyk/lab etc... As for text in photoshop vs illustrator... if its for web use photoshop, print use illustrator... simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hitcher Posted May 27, 2008 Report Share Posted May 27, 2008 If your going to design a magazine, Id go with Indesign, illustrator more for drawing rather than layouts etc. Do your designing/photos/pictures etc in Photoshop then transfer it over to InDesign to do the text.
