It's worth the money ONLY if you really want to LEARN to use it everyday. I have both PSP and Photoshop7. I thought I would NEVER use both, but I DO and it's worth it!!! They compliment each other so much. What one has the other doesn't. You won't regret it if you want a powerful software with the ability to do professional work. You have to WANT to learn it though, cause there is a great big learning curve that most PSP users rather not tackle. I was one of them for a long time. PSP8 is really getting closer to PShop I believe, but it still has a way to go. And I totally agree with bonestructures comments.. Just my 2cents. -SeaC- :)
