When you need to edit photos but don’t have Photoshop.

There is no shortage of graphic editing tools out there. Some are better for photos, some are better for illustrations, some are expensive, some are free....and it's a whole other game if you include mobile apps. When it comes to the best options for the desktop, which do we use and recommend?

I’ve received a couple of questions about how to create GIFs for Instagram. There are many ways to do this, but my favorite is to use a program I’m already familiar with — Photoshop. In Instagram, you can’t upload a normal GIF file. It won’t animate. So, in order to make your animation work on Instagram, you will have to create a movie file, namely an .mp4 file. Photoshop can help you create that!
