Unfortunately, Adobe Photoshop cost a fair amount of money (between 50 and 200 dollars) and there is no free version to my knowledge. I would, however, recommend the program "GIMP". It is almost exactly the same as Adobe Photoshop, with a few simpler tools. It is free to download from the website, which you can find by googling "GIMP". It's pretty much the same, and it's free

Hope this helps!

Paint.net is another free photo editing software that you can use that works like Photoshop. Also you can sometimes get a copy of Photoshop Elements free with Digital cameras which is a cut down version of Photoshop.

I did a quick pdf document for another member on making banners if I can find it (it's either on my memory stick or my home PC) I'll post it up.
