| Photoshop, definately. There's a reason adobe is gaining shitloads from it even if it costs like 10k. GIMP sucks monkey arse, I tried it and I hated it, who the hell wants a different (main) window for every project, the brush set and other things anyway? Yay, have the whole taskbar filled!  And menus on rightclick is just st0pid.Photoshop can do pixel, and it can do it good, it never AA for me if I don't want it to, just use the pencil tool on 1px not the brush tool  Even if you want to do something simple photoshop is the way to go, I mean, how fun is it to restart because you do something wrong? Paint has like 2 history steps if even that. In photoshop you have 20-100, you pick  And layers, what can you do without layers anyway? Draw a line?  Oh, and the cost of a product is moot for most people online |

| Paint basically rapes every image you choose to convert into another file format than the highest BMP setting. A picture editing program where you can't set transparency or use layers is one I'll be quick to abandon. GIMP is awesome when it comes to sheer creeping featuritis, which I guess is a good thing in picture editing. It's decidedly NOT awesome when it comes to interface outside of Linux. GIMP was engineered primarily to fit in with other Linux programs. It just didn't feel right on the Windows side of the fence. I want my MDI or tabbed SDI, I want my palettes, I want to be able to dock the extraneous palettes and toolbars to the sides of the window/edges of the screen. GIMP fails miserably when it comes to fitting into a Windows environment as far as I know. The buttons are grey, that's about right, yes. Standard open/save panel? No. MDI/SDI? No (some freak mix). Tool palette OUTSIDE of the window with the menus? No. Requires a month of training just to be able to handle the window management mentally? Yes. I won't be revisiting GIMP until it gets a decent Windows UI. This is not impossible. Firefox, for example, was a Mozilla that's reengineered to strip down on menu items from some very high prime to about 10 items on average in every menu. Same with the rest of the interface, it was made more Windows XP-ish (and Mac OS X-ish in some cases, granted). I've tried it on OS X too, and there it looks more like Safari (the main OS X browser). So it's not impossible, just hard. Until then, I'll stick to my Paint Shop Pro 9 beta. |

It's just a GTK2 app which happens to build on Win32 currently due to the port of the libs it relies on. I thought the Windows GTK2 port had an engine which inherited the Windows widget? |

| For Converting to other format and compression settings, I use ErgoImage, a program my late employer developed, and it's quite good, for that. (And viewing images). Or Irfanview. For my little Editing needs, MS Paint is more than enough. And a critical point for me that speaks for paint and not photoshop, is: it never crashed on me. |

| I hardly ever use Paint. Try to avoid having to draw stuff if I have only Paint. I stick to PSP8 mainly, though I just installed Potatochop. Is this PSP9 beta any good? |

| I need both. I use Paint for isometric pixel art. I use Photoshop for touching up pictures and resizing things. Mostly I use Open Canvas or Painter... |
