If you want to design a vector based image, then Corel DRAW is one of a good designing software to look for. Vector graphics are nothing but the images / graphics contains lines, circles, triangles, etc. It is also simple to use.

If you like to design a logo with images (bitmap), then you can go for PhotoShop. It is little complicated than CorelDRAW. But wonderful to make excellent results. Lots and lots of filters are available for free download. You can apply filters to get instant effects on your photos.

I’m not sure about the pricing details. You can look for some website to get it.

If you are really wanting something that is creative and unique you will need professional design software. Ease of use depends upon your other software knowledge. The more programs you know the easier it is to learn new ones.

Adobe Illustrator is the best with some time learning the tools.
But check out all of the Adobe design software and see what seems to click for you. Check out EBay prices and yes, they give student and teacher discounts at most stores that sell software. Best Buy etc.

You can buy it in Wind. or Mac.

Best of luck

Adobe Illustrator is the best prog to use. It really doesn’t matter if you get the Mac or PC version.

It is fairly easy to use, depending on your experience. The only problem with all graphics packages is the price…I don’t think they do students rates.
