As far as graphics software, Adobe Photoshop is the way to go / top of the line. A little pricey, but well worth it in the long run. I also use Fireworks (my Adobe is on my desktop and unaccesable because the pc has 'issues'), which is capable of some pretty nice work as well

On the subject, whats the diff between regular photshop and limited edition? I got a copy of limited with my digital camera, but I'm still using my original version. Just wondering whats the diff.

I use a combination of Fireworks 4 and Photoshop 7. Usually if one can't do something, the other can.

I believe limited edition doesn't have as many filters and built-in effects.

I use the windows port of GIMP (free). Still learning it, but it seems to do everything I want. It doesn't do multi-line text, which is the only drawback I've found so far. Many effects are macro'd which is kind of handy. Pretty good range of filters too...

WRT websites, I haven't found any sites that offer consistent free graphics (don't know if free is an issue for you). I like the freedom to design what I want, so I generally do it myself.
