Paint:
Paint is a basic art program it is used for making symbols, banners or pixle art…if you have alittle skill it can be very helpful with anything you have to do. Best of all its free, Paint comes with any Windows program, always has. Paint is also Oh so very simple to use, it is extreamly self explanitory and its program can be used to convert any file into another. For example, if you have a bmp image and you wont to post it to the net but they only accept GIF then you can go to paint import it into the plank page and then save it as a GIF file (how useful =[) ). Yet paint does have its "draw" backs, it has a problem with minamizing and maximizing images. Unlike microsoft windows word it is not mathamaticle. This means that when you make any image larger in paint it becomes very pixlized, (how ugly =(] ). Yet in microsoft word you can make ur image lager and smaller with no loss of data at all. One other issue faced by Paint is that when you convert a file to another example bmp to JPEG you can lossed soem colour. Now this does not mean that ur person u drew with a lovely red jumper will now have a green one when u save it as a JEPEG file no. This means that afue extra pixles will be added, making it hard to eddit ur image.
Adobe photo shop:
Adobe photo shop is a make more sefisticated version of paint, in this i mean that it has extra features for example, it is much smarter it can recognize colours and shapes. You can use a wond to cut out say a car from a background. Adobe has been given a little logo. When you see a car that looks fantastic or see a modle that doesnt look real, either you will say or you will hear it said “Photo shop” or “air brush”. Air brush is a very usful tool that uses the same technique as the wond to erase particulare shapes and colours from the image….example skin blemishes. (yes air brush can also mean a real “air brush”, but thats not what im talking about. Paint shop pro unlike Paint can minimize any images and re-scale it without loss of info, yes it uses math aswell. Yet with its formats it is not so simple there is only 3 choices to choose from, JAPEG, JPEG, GIF. But no loss or adding of pixles.
Conclution:
Well speaking from a profetionals veiw yes Adobe photoshop is better for a better finish. Yet if your alittle slow and like things to be simple then Paint is the way to go. Using paint does not mean you will end up with a horrid picture, just simply means it wont be the best.
