Hi,

This is off-topic in the sense that it's not about reciprocal space,
but graphics ARE an integral part of publishing and teaching...

I just upgraded to Leopard*, and find that my versions of Photoshop &
CorelDraw no longer work. I can't stomach spending big bucks for the
new version of Photoshop (Adobe is No. 2 behind the Voldemort of
Seattle on my list of software giants who piss me off), and Corel has
cold-heartedly decided to bail on their small but devoted OS X users.

SO: Can anyone suggest OS X alternatives to these two programs that
don't require a huge effort to master?

Please don't suggest Illustrator. Bonus points for cheap or open
source (Note: Gimpshop 2.2.11 (most recent version I could find)
doesn't seem to work under 10.5).

Respond to me and I'll post a summary.

Cheers,

Pat
