What program/software do you use to create graphics with? I have been trying to figure out an easier way to make custom graphics. I have ideas in my head and sometimes can draw them out on paper but just seems I can't get my mouse to do what I want when its time to get busy!

It is a very nice thing that make your graphics on paper.
but what type of graphics you are making. is it related to machine or designing.
if you need machine design then autocad is best.
and
if you want graphics like pictures etc then coral draw, photoshop is best bet.

thanks

Photoshop is my all time favorite. I've been using it for years and have become so comfortable with it that it makes it really easy to create new graphics.

Kitten, can you tell me some of the pros and/or cons of PhotoShop? I know it is somewhat pricey and I just want to make sure that before I buy it (since almost EVERYONE says I should) that it offers a large variety of things that I currently don't have available with the free software I'm using. Thanks!

Well you're in luck! Photoshop actually released a free online version recently. It doesn't have all the features and options, of course, but the basics are there, so you might want to play around with that (https://www.photoshop.com/express/landing.html).
