SamTherapy....."Love Photoshop, would rather stick needles in my eyes than use PSP"
That about sums it up!
soulhuntre is right on the money too.
I've used Photoshop since before there WAS a Photoshop. Does anyone remember ColorStudio? Or Mac Paint? Yeeeeeesh I'm old!
Adobe products usually hands down beat the pants off of anything else, for professional work. They cost more, but they are worth every penny...it's like comparing a Yugo to a BMW, IMHO.
But...for most simple things, or if you are not professional, then use the others. They CAN get the job done.
But, if you want a job in the industry...better go with Photoshop or you won't even get your foot in the door. If I were looking to hire someone and they didn't know Photoshop there'd be no way I could even consider them.
