....at the Serif.com site. They publish PhotoPlus8, which is extremely similar to PhotoShop and they keep an older version on the site for FREE download without any strings. Been using it since 1999 without regret. You have to look around a bit to find the freebie, but it's always there somewhere. :gossip:

Hi,
I have been using ArtWeaver - another freebie that supports layers.
