    need a photo editing app for pen drive!

    i use photoshop quite a lot at home and was wondering if there is any simular apps that support layers that will run off a 512mb usb drive!

    the reason i ask is i want to to use a photoshopesque program at work but we are not allowed to install anything on works computers!

    thanks in advance!

    I have seen a portable version of Adobe Photoshop floating around... So it would seem its possible to get it working off a pen drive...

    I would say Photoshop is just as user-unfriendly as the GIMP these days.. Paintshop Pro is pretty easy to get around. Though the OP is already familar with Photoshop, so I'd say getting used to the GIMP probibly wouldn't take that long.
