We all know about Adobe Photoshop, Adobe illustrator and The Adobe Creative Suite. The suite is a creative industry standard and commands big bucks for a licence. If you have the money and nothing else will do then I advise you to go straight to the adobe site http://www.adobe.com/ for the proprietary software.
However, for those who want something different, on a modest budget yet still require quality software, read on. There are more options on the internet for designers than just Adobe.
