Try right clicking on the desktop going to properties and changing the resolution.

Half decade bump.

Anyone know of any good free and paid photo editing software for mac and windows?

Want to get on it.

Photoshop is pretty expensive, so thought I'd check out options first.

Cheers.

Gimp is pretty decent as a free photo editing software. You obviously won't be able to alter photos like you would be able to in Photoshop or Lightroom, but you can't beat free.

My natural response is to direct you towards PirateBay or KickAssT, but you may be a better human being than I am.

I used to download a trial version. Then look on youtube for the key.

Can't be bothered with bootleg apps tbh, had too much trouble in the past with them.

I'll check out gimp or an older version of photoshop possibly.

£80 for a photoshop licence is a bit too much.

I'm shopping for a sound system and I need some help

What I want to do with it:
Be able to play music from my phone/tablet/PC/TV using bluetooth, wifi or an aux cable (I'm looking for one that has all three of those options)
Have good sound quality (doesn't have to be the best, but it has to be good) and have good volume (doesn't have to be the loudest, but has to be loud)
Preferably easy installation and looks good (tallboys preferably)

I can't really give a price range at the moment since South Africa's currency problems are quite ridiculous, but I'm looking at this at the moment: http://www.samsung.com/za/consumer/tv-a ... -J5550K/XA

I'm not sold on that, because it only has a HDMI in, and I want to have the option of playing an XBox through it in the future, but that isn't a huge deal to me.

Any thoughts?
