Photoshop is definitely gaining popularity by the day. It's becoming as widely used as the word processor. @ Gennaro That's definitely a good point. I wish that I had put that in my article.

@ Gennaro

That’s definitely a good point. I wish that I had put that in my article. “A picture is worth a thousand words and a cartoon is worth the same.”

Plenty of serious political topics including war and famine have been illustrated by cartoonists.

That's what I do best here, is stick out, and point out how to do so. :-) @ Sheila Cartoons are fun. Ever since I was a kid, I always wanted to make a cartoon, and now I have the ability to do so. The sad thing is, I still watch more cartoons than live action. And yes, I created my header, and all of the other pictures on this site in Photoshop. Even when I do a majority of the work in Illustrator, I still create the final product in Photoshop. I LOVE Photoshop! :-) @ Jay

I agree that images and cartoons are powerful ways to get the point across. I try not to choose images as an afterthought, but I'm sure I could do better than I've done thus far. Would you be willing to write a post about what bloggers should consider when coming up with a cartoon or picture? <abbr><em>Michael’s most recent blog post..<a href="http://lovetospare.com/2009/03/07/the-love-letter/" rel="nofollow">The Love Letter</a></abbr></em> Hi Trey,
