this guide is about transferring dvd's to your ipod but you have to rip them onto your computer first.

i would say handbrake or handbrake lite is the best software available on mac for dvd ripping. you can find instructions on how to use it at the link i posted.

ok.. ilife 06 comes with iphoto for your photo needs. i dont know of any for grapics. you may want to check that first link i gave you, and there may be something there..

http://pure-mac.com/graph.html

you could always just get photoshop elements. under $100, and pretty dang close to photoshop.

for dvd backing up. check this thread out.
