I finally found a good free alternative to Photoshop. I'm hoping to create my own cover for the novel I'm writing (if I ever finish it). I have some ideas and I really didn't want to hire someone to design a cover for a book that might not even sell. Photoshop charges a monthly fee and I'm cheap :))
Maybe many of you have already heard of PIXLR but I thought I'd share here because I'm pretty excited about it. There's a learning curve, of course, but everything you do can be undone if you're not satisfied with the results. There's a gazillion options and it's quite fun. Best of all, it's free!
Here's the link for anyone who's interested. I'm not an affiliate or anything - just wanted to share. Would you have any use for this?

It's smart not to spend money on something you're not sure you will get your money back on.

It sounds a good site. I recently got a new laptop and the site I used to use isn't on it for some reason so I'm having to learn a new one. But I mostly just downsize and crop for images to put on here.
