use photoshop for all of your raster images and photo editing. but if you are going to do like acutle 3d work then get c4d.

You should add Blender to the list of free programs. It's good for creating 3D text and shapes if you don't have C4D

Is it against the rules to explain how to obtain current versions of Photoshop for free?

Yes it is against the rules unless you are telling someone about the free trial from Adobe xD

Gotcha I was just curious for curiosity's sake...

It's not a program really, but pixlr.com does offer a pretty good online editor that really gets the job done.

practice makes perfect. it just takes time. just ask anyone who is good at graphics, how long they have been doing it for. most will say at least a year plus. like me i've been doing it for about 5 years.
