Some free programs for people to use

I thought I would post some of the free applications I use or like, since I haven’t had time to do any new art.

For photo editing I use Photoshop, but a free program very similar is Paint.net (funnily enough that’s the site too). GIMP is another well known one, but is not as user friendly, yet has more advanced features.

For screencapture, I spent weeks trying to find a good one, most where horrible or had a stupid watermark, I found a nice free open source one called camstudio. No watermark and if you install the seperate download of codec’s you get a very good quality of screen capture.
Free office programs, none other than open office. It’s mostly the same as microsoft office, only with the great price tag of FREE.
I’m yet to find some good free video editing software.

For my friend, guardianwolf, you had a problem with a wirelessly networked scanner? I have a wireless all-in-one printer and if it messes up I just unplug the router, plug it in again and so long as your computer is the only one on the network it should be fine.

On a side not I have cam-studio working perfectly now 🙂 just needed to configure correctly, but I cant get the codecs to work, they install but don’t appear.
