There are tons of programs out there that you can use to design snazzy graphics and pictures for your printed products. You may already have a favorite that you use on a regular basis. Photoshop & Photoshop Elements are 2 popular ones, and these are used a lot by professional designers and graphic artists, etc., but those programs can be pretty pricey. One free one out there that I’ve personally used and really like is GIMP. Some of you may already use GIMP, or have at least heard about it, but for those of you who haven’t, it’s worth checking out . As you can see below, GIMP has a pretty decent interface, and lots of the same options you can find in Photoshop and some of the other costly graphics programs out there. If you want to give them a try, go to gimp.org to download the program.
