Review summary |
If you're a professional or ambitious amateur digital artist, we highly recommend Adobe Photoshop CS2.
|
If you're an advanced photographer and don't have Photoshop yet or if you need natural paint tools, version 7.0 is a must-have; otherwise, version 6.0 will do the trick.
|
Google SketchUp is a flexible, powerful app for quick 3D sketching on the fly, but professionals will want the $500 version.
|
|
Best for coding and design pros, Adobe Dreamweaver CS4 is perhaps the sharpest, swiftest tool for developing and editing dynamic Web sites.
