You can use allot of softwares to achieve the same effect, I recommend Photoshop or Gimp(which is free).

Use my reflection/fade tutorial to learn how to blend images

 

Moved to Visual Arts.

Adobe Photoshop is the main program people use for anything graphics design related. As Narcis' said you can try GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program), which is open-source (free), and very similar to PS - plus you have the bonus of PS plug-ins and brushes being compatible. However the user interface is more complicated than Photoshop's, and the range of help and tutorials is much less. I used GIMP when I first started, and I'm so glad I moved to PS.

 

Some people also use Paint.NET, which is also a free graphics program, and apparently easier to use especially for people just starting out.

 

But, if you want to make something like that picture then Photoshop is the way to go. Though.. getting it is expensive, around £300-500 I think. Even more if you buy the full Creative Suite 5 (CS5) and Extended Editions... It's worth it though as long as your serious about graphics design. If your just looking to make a few sigs then get GIMP.

 

Learning Photoshop/GIMP or any other grpahics program is hard at first, there's many features and many things that are possible, so read some tutorials to figure out how each tool and feature works, and then you can put it all together and make something like that ^.
