paying a large sum of money at one time.
Others may find the continual payments
annoying, and equate it to simply renting
the program.
However, a subscription-based product
includes updates that run smoothly and
seamlessly, as well as built-in tutorials to
supplement the ones on Adobe's website,
YouTube, Lynda.com and others.You can
download a free trial of Photoshop to
experiment before making the investment.

A CorelDRAW Overview
I have heard CorelDRAW referred to as
the "anti-Adobe" software option. Unlike
Photoshop, CorelDRAW - launched in
1989 - is a vector-based program that
uses mathematical equations to resize an
image from 1 inch tall to billboard size
without loss of quality.
If you frequently work with businesses,
then CorelDRAW may be ideal, as you
may find it easier to work with company
logos. It also allows easy color separations,
which is important to the screen-printing
production process.
CorelDRAW also gives flexible control when editing EPS files, regardless of
whether they are school logos, patterns
or other drawn graphic elements.You can
open a product template and place the
artwork inside to fit the form, similar to
creating a clipping mask in Photoshop.
CorelDRAW is part of a suite of programs (including Corel Photopaint) that
ranges in cost from $450-$500. It can be
downloaded online or shipped. Upgrades
