how about Gimp?

**edgray** · 11-28-2010, 12:46 PM

Gimp.
Graphic Converter.

for images.

For coding, Taco HTML Editor is pretty awesome.

If you're looking to create a quick mockup or wireframe of your website, LucidChart is a good free option. It's online so you don't have to worry about PC or Mac compatibility issues.

I was going to say Photoshop, but considering you cannot afford it, I'll second edgray. One of your best bets would be GIMP.

As for coding, I'd say Notepad++, along with its nice auto-fill feature.

Gimp is not very good but try with photoshop is the best

**sarahjones** · 11-30-2010, 02:51 AM

I too need the same, which ones are good on Apple, for designing and programming?

**quentinwilliams** · 11-30-2010, 03:01 AM

Although the apple users are less, but the apple users general have a better quality , so many software companies have R & Dthe corresponding software for apple Mac program .
You can go to google or yahoo to search for the top "web designer for Mac".

Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Flash are effectively used in designing website layouts and are great for exporting and optimizing images in the jpeg or gif format.

Hi,

You can get Photoshop on a free trial for 30 days I think at the adobe website?

Then you could look on ebay for a cheap photoshop course showing you how to design your own mini sites in photoshop.

I'm new to this webmasters forum so I don't think I can give you a link to eBay but I have found one for $5 that shows you (in a set of videos) how to create minisites from scratch if that's what you are looking for?

The eBay listing is NOT mine nor do I receive any money from any sales.

I just saw it myself & I'm considering buying it?

I suppose you'll have to contact me then I can give you the link?

That would certainly get you a cheap high quality website or you could do a search on Fiverr.com to see if someone can create one for you for $5?

I've seen one on those kind of websites (gigswood) for $19 & the quality is stunning.

Regards

Gary

i am using PhotoShop, CoralDraw, Page Maker Adobe illustrator etc if u want you can make a try.

**maheshadodis** · 12-10-2010, 12:28 AM

Hi,
It is better to choose php and java script which are now powerful medium of web design

**bumbastic002** · 12-10-2010, 02:03 AM

I think you could get some older version of Photoshop not so much expensive, or maybe sometimes it is added to computers newspaper. If not then only gimp allow to do smth good.
