is there even a decent image editor in the $30-$50 range for windows?

no one wants to pay for software on windows so you have open sores and then you have adobe for businesses to buy

now that adobe's stuff is subscription-only it's not worth it for occasional use

Don't know if it's good, but Affinity is available for Windows.

the licensing system is really, really really bad. my work copy will periodically forget that it's licensed, tlel me I have thousands of days of trial left, then on the next launch demand that I re-enter the key.

if you are a professional who was already buying the yearly updates, yes. otherwise it basically becomes ransomware which makes you pay to access anything you did with it later on

i'm not getting paid to do it so neither is adobe.

i could do it if there was any kind of a sane price for someone who is not a professional artist, but does photo manipulations every now and then.

resolve has a truly incredible commitment to trash canning any serious non-colour related work you do

picked the wrong frame rate? trash can
forgot to turn autosave on for every new project? trash can
problem with the sqlite database all project files are stored in by default? trash can

Don't you just hate when you wind up in a store with people who are in a socioeconomic class that is pretty obviously about two levels lower than your own?
just get yourself a copy of Photoshop 4 on eBay and run it on a classic Mac if you want the best possible Photoshop experience

photoshop elements sounds like it's made for making collages of baby pictures for facebook. and it's still more expensive than affinity

they're probably forcing you over to the application specific passwords that you have to generate. it returns an error code that explains it but I doubt mobile devices/apps would return it correctly
