I do not need to do photo editing or anything like that. I need to be able to make graphics for my business’ social media, and to display on my in store monitors. I get marketing graphics from different publishers whose products i sell, and i need to be able to add my business name and other info.
I have Photoshop CS5 on my dying windows laptop, and i just got a new MacBook pro to replace my old air. Now that i do not have reliable access to Photoshop i need a Mac alternative.
Does anyone have a suggestion? Cheap would be best. I am willing to pay for a program that does what i need.
Affinity Designer and Affinity Photo are the best solutions in my opinion, especially for someone used to Adobe products. One-time payment, bundle available. Look out for discounts if it’s not urgent. I got the bundle for almost half the price in January.
Pixelmator Pro is a great, much cheaper alternative but I never really got used to the interface.
As much as I like both Affinity and Pixelmator, neither work well with Fuji (they use the built in RAW engine)
They’re still fantastic apps, not this is one area where Apple does a poor job.
