Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
i personally suggest PhotoShop. It is always kept up to date and new features are added all the time. There are many more tutorials and help pages for PhotoShop than for Corel. Most digital art/photography schools and classes actually require PhotoShop rather than Corel. Photoshop may cost more at first, but also keep in mind that you can always just start with PhotoShop CS and then upgrade. If you go to its official website, it explains how it works. I personally like how the menus are arranged in Photoshop and that everything is very self explanatory. Corel just confuses me! (By the way, I am a photography minor so I've worked with both). Anyway...Photoshop works really well with fantasy type touchups, add ons etc. I have friends who have worked with both programs and much prefer masking and such over the options in Corel. Overall, Photoshop is better supported, at least IMHO, and more mainstream for Digital Art than Corel. Good luck whatever you choose! Have fun with it! :) |
