Hi,

I want to create a background picture.

I would like to create .bmp picture & then be able to paste other smaller .bmp pictures on top of the main picture. Then I could save the picture as one .bmp and use it as a background on one of my games.

Does anyone now any software which can do this. (Photoshop can but it is very complicated)

Photoshop (have never used it) and Paint Shop Pro always look scary and hard.. but with a little practice they are VERY easy.

By the sounds of it, you dont need a photo editing program.. MS Paint can paste bitmaps on top of each other..

PSP and APH look almost identical at first glance. You could probably make a DBP program to do it though!

Current Projects: Verious things right now. Lots of utils for game making. Hopefully something solid soon.
