Now maybe we can stop arguing about this in the other thread?  Anyway, I've never used any besides Photoshop, but I quite like it. Does everything I need and more.  |

| Photoshop. It's what I learned at school, so it's what I'm the most familiar with. I only use it for image editing though, I find it hard to do image creation in it. |

| OMG GIMP OMG OPENSOURCE OMG FREEDOM OMG LINUX OMG MICROSOFT OMG HIPPIES OMG... ...eh wait, I do use Gimp. But to be honest I hadn't given Photoshop a chanche. Althought it's so expensive...  And Paintshop pro is kinda nice. But somehow I see GIMP as being more advanced, if just little tricky to use. It's so diffrent. I would advise everyone to try Gimp anyway, as it's free. Photoshop is not bad either. Thought I swear that GIMP is faster to start and such... |

| I prefer Paint Shop Pro. I still remember when I used PS3. Then, a long time after, I switched to PSP7... and that's still what I use. Fast to load, perfect for fast editing (well, that's what I think ) |

| The GIMP. I used it first, so it's the most familar to me. Oh yeah, it's also free as in freedom (dammed www.) (edited by FreeDOS on 02-17-05 09:50 PM) |

| A combination of PSP8 and GIMP 2. GIMP 2 is used for pasting screenshots fast, working with semitransparent PNGs and stuff. For all other things I prefer PSP8, since the UI improved. Only the very long loading time compared to version 7 sucks |

I prefer Photoshop. I would try PSP but my last version was the version that could fit on a floppy disk. GIMP, well, if there is a Cygwin distribution of it, then I may try it--but compiling stuff to get stuff running is  |

| The GIMP is good, but Photoshop is much more feature-rich (though to be fair, I haven't looked at GIMP for over a year, now). | |||

| Photoshop, although Adobe should be flogged for charging that much for it. There is no justification for a single piece of software to be that expensive. If it's to be run on one PC, for one user, then the charge should only be a little more to cover the costs to develop it. | |||

| OMFG Paint 0wnz j00! Seriously...which editor is best really depends on your preferences and needs. Of the choices, Photoshop is the most powerful, and it's also a standard among graphics pros. However, as we all know, it's quite expensive, so it wouldn't be the best choice for someone who doesn't need its unique features or is unwilling to pay several hundred dollars for them. Thus, for the average person, I'd say that Gimp is best because it's quite full-featured, completely free, and available for multiple platforms as well. I know it has an unconventional interface that many people dislike, but I think it offers the best value. |

Originally posted by Rydain See, that's also a placement of opinion. One that's mostly based in what you started using. The Mac version of Photoshop handles its windows much like GIMP does. |

| From what I recall reading on various Slashdot discussions, the main gripes seem to be with the way a multiple-windowed application works under a version of Windows that doesn't do taskbar grouping. Every window gets its own entry, and you can't minimize or restore the entire application at once by itself. Putting the windows inside a main root window, like Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro does, solves both of those issues. There is a Windows Gimp Deweirdifyer plugin that gives the application a root window. I haven't tried it yet, but people who don't like using Gimp under Windows for the reasons above should take a look. As far as the rest of the interface goes, I agree that it depends on what you know and what you started out with. Gimp (even 1.x) has always worked well for me, especially because I'm running it under a GUI with multiple desktops and no taskbar, so the issues mentioned above don't affect me at all. I think it arranges options logically and in a manner similar to Photoshop (which is the first image editor I played with at length), and I like the lack of root window because I can scatter Gimp windows across multiple desktops if I want to (a definite advantage of this GUI style!), and I can see my perty desktop background while working.  |

| No question. It's got to be Corel Photopaint. It's got all the features of photoshop and more. -AND- it's actually designed for Windows, not Macintosh code that's just been ported. | |||
