When editing my original imagery I used Picassa 3, this is a free image editor created by Google. The images below evidence how I used the program to edit the CD cover for my Digipack and part of the process that took place. I preferred using this program to Photoshop as it allowed me to experiment with a range of affects in which I would also be able to preview the possible results.
To create my CD, I made it free hand using Microsoft word. This may seem suprising but I found it simple and easy to create. The image on the left evidence part of the process in creating my CD. The template image on the right was created in photoshop and it took me twice as long.
However for adding and editing text on both my Magazine cover and Digipack I used Photoshop as I felt it was the most developed program and provided a crisp and clear outcome for my Final Pieces. To prove this I edited My CD back cover in two programs, one being photoshop. The more sharper more professional cover ( bottom right) was made in Photoshop and the difference between the two is imense.
