Good software to watch out for?

As all of you guys know, Photoshop is not no where near for the
frugile. No for years I have been using gimp. Gimp is a free photoshopy
want-a-be BUT IT WORKS.

Here is a link:
Gimp

Now I know what your thinking and no its not stolen lol. Its free, as my school uses it. Cheap *#%$^.

Anyone know any other software thats free/cheap and legal?

LimeWire and FrostWire are both good file sharing programs like Kazza and bearshare. I only use them for music though. They can be easily found just by googleing them.

I think Photoscape is simple, free, quite good and legal.

Its mainly for editing photos and you can create your own short simple animation.

As for Videos and Music, I recommend Esnips but you have to register to download a music/video.

In 3d imaging, there is a free application to do so called 'Blender'. I have tried a Lightwave 3d imaging/animation in natcoll that time then when I tried to use Blender, I find them very hard to use. just in case you are very crazy over some 3d art lol.

Check out Splash up for online photoshop image making. Good thing about this is a simple version of adobe photoshop. but the bad sides are alot to tell. worst case scenario is when you dont know how to use the tools properly that you have to click the EDIT- UNDO to undo the error. I find it very annoying to do. I hope this helps..I did warn you lol

EDIT: my screenshots
1 2 3

I know my art sucks in this photoshop..I tried to make Ed's face pointy <.<;;
