    Hi,

    This is kinda embarrasing. I just bought a website template off another member and he sent it to my email. I tried to open the file he sent me but it won't work on my computer. It wants to open with photoshop and I don't have photoshop on my computer. Is there any other way to open it?

    Thanks for your help, this will be my first website :eek:

    I bet it's a rar or a zip :p

    Tell us the extension, I'm sure somebody can convert it if required :)

    most programs can open a psd file.

    If you would like maybe send me the file, I will open it and put
    it into html and then zip it up and give it back to you

    If you just want to view it, you can use Picasa - or Google "PSD viewer".

    irfan viewer will view psd files. But to get the total usefulness of the file you're going to need PS.

    You don't need PhotoShop and you can open this file with GIMP which is free...
