Graphic Editors & Tools
these are the graphic editors & tools we use
Font Runner- is a Font Viewer that Denny & Bev had used for years we have tried other free font viewers and it works the best for us
Argus Preset Viewer- this is a awesome little tool for Windows & File Explorer gives you a thumbnail where you can view PSD files and Photoshop Brushes as thumbnails in your Folders so it works with Paint Shop Pro, Photoshop & Photoshop Elements .. if you have Photoshop or Photoshop Elements you can also see previews of Styles , Patterns , Gradients, Custom Shapes & etc.. a must have tool.. Bev loves his tool
BrushBox- is a plugin for Photoshop to organize the brushes it organize the brushes better
Note ! the Photoshop subscription Bev was worried about it at first but her Photoshop was so old she took the plunge you pay per month and get the newest version it is only 10$ a month she has the lowest plan $9.99 and we spend that on supplies or a pizza …Bev absolutely loves it & she thinks 10$ a month on something you love is worth it specially if you do not have other hobbies… but that is her opinion

Colors
Tools, Charts, Hex Numbers & Schemers.Here is a few we use .. I love the Colorzilla tool a little handy tool, for grabbing a color from a web page . & love Color Schemer V 2 it is a old compared to other Color Schemers or Match Color Generators … but it is plain simple I love it … you just put in the Hex number & no fooling with wheels.

Vectors, SVG & Clip Art
AI , EPS , and PDF Files

AI , EPS ,SVG they files made with programs like Adobe Illustrator they have their own file type AI , EPS , you can open these files in Photoshop, Photoshop Elements, or Paint Shop Pro versions(X6 to current ) you can even open PDF Files ..
Most of the AI & EPS Files have a backgrounds that you have to remove first and make them transparent …. I use the magic wand tool mostly to remove the background it real easy to remove … then from jpeg or gif
these places are becoming a favorite of mine lately. ..they are used by some of the psp community to make kits and access tubes/embellishments /elements
Photoshop Brushes
