PERFECT CUBE STRIPES!
I tried to learn how to use the pen tool several times before I gave up. Marquee tools are the way to go for me.

I have photoshop 2. It's worked so well I don't see a need to upgrade to 3 or 4. Does anyone have photoshop 3 or 4?
Photoshop CS2? I'm using CS4 extended.
Photoshop 2 would be WAY old. I started learning photoshop 5 or 5.5. and CS4 is basically photoshop 11. I think I've only skipped photoshop CS, since it was pretty much photoshop 7 with a more user friendly GUI and a bit more optimized filters for what I was doing then.
You referring to CS2, CS3 and CS4? Like theVDude said, Photoshop 2 is quite old, whereas CS2 is more recent and the version I use.

The pen tool is pretty easy to learn, I think. I didn't have too much trouble. I'll see if I can find you some tips and such, and maybe make something real quick.
One of the easiest ones I've seen is a tutorial where you trace a penguin. I'll see if I can find that one. It's easy and helpful.
Paint.NET is free and pretty much can do what Photoshop can. Also you can Download a tool off Nemstools to make it read vtfs.

As a user of Photoshop at home and Paint.NET at work, Paint.NET sucks major balls. It holds nothing on Photoshop.
Very true--the VTF plugin replicates all of the options in VTFEdit; the only thing it can't do is make the VMT.
I beg to differ. I think a complete lack of price is something to hold on Photoshop at the very least.
Now with 100% more inline comments!
Who pays for Photoshop?
I don't think I ever heard of one person that bought an Adobe product. Its just too expensive.
But Paint.NET of course is not suppose to be better then Photoshop. Just a tool to get things done. I just use it to make vtfs easier.
