cool and its legal!
sure beats stealing.

I didn't know about the PSP 8 Beta test, thanks for the NFO

WOW KOOL THANX ,BUT WHICH 1 WOULD U SAY IS BEST FOR A BEGGINER

Just pick one and play with it, dude. There is no 'best for a beginner'. I was a beginner and I had Photoshop 4.0. 4 years and two upgrades later, look what I can do. And I still need to get 7.0.

So just find one and stick with it.

ok then i shall

PSP8 is way different to PSP7, it is nothing like the step from 6 to 7. I would think carefully before you get 7.

Here are some art resource links.

Farp
It is a general art tutorial page with a large section on Computer Art.

Bakaneko
Good tutorials on different topics. Anime inspired

I'll post more as I find them,

Here are some 3D sites for those that are dabbling or creating.

I use Lightwave 3D so most of these are LW related sites. However, the concepts for modeling, lighting, and texturing apply to any 3D application.

Lightwave Tutorials on the Web.
Scott Cameron's be-all end-all for LW tutorials.

Flay.com
Not only covers tutorials but plug-ins and galleries for different artists.

Lightwave World
Excellent tutorial list.

Now that lightwave stuff is really helpful.
I've been wanting to do something with it for a LONG time.
But all the other stuff is really cool 2.
Thanx guys.

OMG Thanks Jonin, I won't recieve those PMs saying "Where can I download this program?", no offence to those who sent me those PMs. =P

I doubt anyone cares... Since I'm just... soooo Talentless according to some... ;) But if you're interested in how I create such Realistic Hair in Photoshop...

ArtLair

Other turotials there, too. But I stole the hair thing ^______^ I tweaked it, but yeah... that's the basis of it there.

i just use paint

can someone please post photoshop?

Photoshop isn't free, so...

NO

k? :)

I don't know if this counts, but since music is an art and it is totally free I'll drop this line.

It is a proggie called Hyper Symphony. I stumbled accross it. Some dudes at MIT are passing it out. Basically, easy music. I know it isn't pen and paper (or 1 and 0). But you could do fan music. I haven't played with it. But it would be cool to add music with some of the fan art in swf files or something.

I ain't looking to get flamed here. And I don't know if it specifically fits the premise of this area. But, it is grey enough for me.

Just a thought...

I love IRfanView for image viewing and conversion.

It changes just about any image format into any other. It even recognizes incorrect formats, and asks if you would like to rename the extension to the proper one.

All around good program, but make sure that you don't give it total control over all media formats.

It is free.

And so am I...

I'm wondering if anyone had any work from PSP 8.. I'm having a hard time doing sektors body and stuff... :(

Heh...Are you sure about that man?! PSP is so easy to learn..just look at my sig. I get so much PMs and compliments from it !

here's one for both the 2D and the 3D artists, though there is a definite slant towards the poser folk. They have tons of free resources and tutorials for almost any need you might have. You DO have to be a member to download the free stuff, but membership is free :)
