I don't know who the hell kicked you in the back of the head here, but Corel Draw has nothing over Paintshop Pro.

Ask CaptainMike.... He may be able to help you....
Corel Draw didn't catch anyone's interest, I like the 2 I mentioned.....
I do have to agree with The359....
Photoshop was selling cheap, for the older version... Been awhile since I have checked though.... Then add a few plugins and you are ready to go.... After a few seconds of fidling.... is a different logo....

You know that fuzz stuff that comes around your pictures if you save them in JPG? Do you know of anything that cleans that up?

Yes. Not using JPEGs.
Seriously, JPEGS use what is technically called "lossy" compression, where they shrink the image by "losing" bits of detail. Hence "lossy". They took a real word and made it silly!
In Paint Shop Pro (which is superior to Corel Draw, although possibly not QUITE as good as Photoshop, although if you're not doing professional stuff I doubt you'll notice the difference) and most graphics programs you can alter the compression ratio, but you'll still get a little bit of fuzz. You have two options:
1/ Use GIFs. If it's a logo or any form of graphic that is 256 colours or less, use a GIF. It's better, and it doesn't fuzz.
2/ Use PNGs. These are new (ish), and therefore aren't supported by really old browsers and Geordies. But they can be 16 million colours and don't fringe. The files will be bigger than JPEGS, but look loads better.
"Oh, the hilarity of the "adult section" at the Otakon 2000 art show. I remember one drawing in particular where Misty was on all fours facing Ash, who held what appeared to be a 4-foot length of high-volume fire hose in his hands."
Ha! Although not quite as disturbing as the number of Powerpuff lesbian hentai pics I've seen, which have the double disturbing thing of:
1/ They are 5, and
2/ They are sisters.
Paedophilia AND incest! God bless the internet.
-------------------- Yes, you're despicable, and... and picable... and... and you're definitely, definitely despicable. How a person can get so despicable in one lifetime is beyond me. It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Well, I could just kitbash most of my ships, but the problem is they are odd shapes and I can't make it look right. The Baker class for instance.

You are certainly catching on. The thing the world needs the most is another Geocities Kitbash Star Trek ships sites! You'll be inundated with visitors! How unique!

Well, Designs & Creativity usually implies some sense of design and creativity...
My, I am catty. Anyway, we've never demanded that threads about creating websites go there. Were we, heaven help us, to start discussing the specific matters of "content," that would belong best there.
