Good afternoon all, i am new to this and have been looking over questions etc that have already been posted and am still a little confused, so thought i would ask myself. I intend to print writing/photos/images onto mugs , i would like to know is there an easy programme that i can copy and paste an image into that would make it simple? sorry to sound stupid but was wondering what is the best way? I have just bought a sg3110 printer and need to know what to use? im not up to speed on any programmes so the easier the better ha ha , any help would be apprieciated.........

Corel Draw, spend a little time and you'll soon get the hang of it.

i wouldn't class most professional vector software "the most simple to use", but I agree with Justin, Corel would serve you much better.
But if you really doing so bad with software then you can take advantage of your printer and print from anything that will fork for you via powerdriver :)

Serif Drawplus X2 for me. I find it a lot easier than Coreldraw.

I use Corel Draw X4 but also have Essentials which is very good.

I'm using Paint Shop Pro for editing photo's and Serif PagePlus for doing the layouts and printing.
