I searched, I really did...
but I'm having trouble finding a decent paint-like program, for free.  So, here I am, wearing an asbestos suit, in anticipation of the flames I'm about to receive, asking you if you know a good program.  I tried the GIMP but hated it and I will go back to it if there are no alternatives.  I have a limited version of Photoshop, but it only has one undo level! I'm not perfect so I need undo levels. Can you help me out?

Unfortunately, I'm not allowed to suggest that you download a copy of Paint Shop Pro or Photshop from Kazaa. It's very naughty and the admins get cross, so don't do it. If you see what I mean.

the free version of paintshop works for me and even though it says you cant use it after 60 days. Im past the 60 day limit but I can still use it.(it just says im on my 60th dayeven tho im on my 70th) :p

Also, try magazines like Computer Art and the like, they very often give away freebie art programs.

I don't get art magazines. I just want to make and edit textures, not draw pictures.

P.S. By art programs I mean old versions of Photoshop etc.

Try here, I'm honestly not trying to be sarcastic at you, it was a genuine suggestion. Computer Arts magazine make some of their freebies available as downloads, I'm not sure how good they are, but it is worth a try :)

Computer Arts Magazine

Flipside :)

Oh yes, one thing, at least from where I am accessing it, it's not the fastest web page in the world, don't know why :)

Most good paint programs aren't cheap or easily available.  Unless your a university or college student...stuff like Photoshop 7.0 is only about $350 Cdn.  And if you factor in the cost of books that I usually pay each year, its cheap because I only need to buy it once (and it'll serve my purposes for many classes to come).
