![]() | i would recomend gimp, its really easy to use and its free. if you are going to use it for professinoal use then i'd say photoshop is better, but if like me you are just starting out or doing it as a hobbie go for gimp. the header i created on the prevoius page was done on gimp. hope that helps

| What to put... | Photoshop CS5 is the latest and great but also more expensive, there is gimp which is the free alternative which is fine to learn with.

| free-gadgets.co.nr | @Sean101: Just one thing. You know, the gadgets section on your site on your homepage in the right sidebar, you've listed: iPod Shuffle - 2 refs, iPhone 4 - 25 refs, Canon Camera - 20 refs, but Kinect - 25 referrals!

Yes, only downloaded it the other day when i found out about it in this thread. Im not sure if i want to keep the background of it transparent or change it to white.. Not made up my mind yet lol. I also made the headers for the boxes on the right, the boxes in the How It Works section & the smaller footer banner too. Quote:

also does anyone know if we can use the photos from FJ's refer friends page- where you chose the gifts you want people to see- for our sites as they are really clear photos and it saves searching for different thngs all over the place

![]() | That was the initial plan, but i couldnt do it on gimp lol. There was lots of Left to Right gradiants, but i couldnt get a gradiant effect that goes Top to Bottom. Do you use this Gimp software?

![]() | yep but am just a rookie, only had it a few weeks. if you want to do a vertical gradient just use the gradient tool, start at the top then drag it down also hold ctrl to get it at straight angle. if you cant do it i'll have a go for you if you want also what version of gimp do you have cause on mine its just one gradient tool
