Sounds like the gimp would be very appropriate for dungeon-related graphics Very Happy

The dungeon is closed for renovations. I will let you all know when it is up and running again. Smile

Agreed. My iMac is a PITA to use and troubleshoot. Sure they are good for websurfing or checking email. However when something goes wrong it's pretty much impossible to figure out what exactly is happening. Usually just forced to "force quit" the applications running and reboot.

People who say stuff like "Macs just ALWAYS work" and "Macs are the best" usually have no idea what they are talking about.

Don't get me wrong. They are good for those that like them. However they are no better than a PC running Windows7 and are more expensive.

From all of the research I've done, a Mac is what will be right for me. Smile

I am no computer expert but my hubby and my brother in law are both knowledgeable when it comes to computers. For what I want to do a mac is my best fit. Smile

If a Mac is what 'yer interested in GC, then I'd suggest going down to a place like Mac Helper and talking to the fella's down there, maybe get some demo time with some MacHeads....not the kids working Best Buy or the commission hounds @ Putridshop, all they are after is a sale.
