text: i downloaded photoshop off of limewire, what do i do now? this is my first time using limewire so im seriously lost! i need detailed instuctions, im a computer dummy :) my friend downloaded it for me and then left, he said some crap about compression or expansion and serial #'s im soo lost! should i just call my friend and have them do it for me or is it pretty easy? the best thing is to get the gimp.  it's a free image manipulation package that's easily as easy to use as photoshop and best of all, it's free and installs easily without serials or keys.  if you must install and use that downloaded photoshop, then i really can't help much with the downladed version as i have no idea what was downloaded (could be anything).  plus, when you download stuff off limewire, it could be the real thing or it could be a virus.  the gimp is really a far safer approach.  you'll need to download two installer packages gtk 2 runtime and the gimp.  after that, install these two files and you're all set.  the gimp does pretty much everything that photoshop can do, in case you were wondering.
