Bah. Gimp can do pretty much anything Photoshop can.


I don't doubt that, it is the user interface that baffles me, whenever I try using it I can never work out what is where. I'm not a frequent Photoshop user, but I can normally find things fairly quickly, at least compared to Gimp.

When I'm using Photoshop it is normally to do a quick job that takes less than five minutes. It typically goes like this:

- download and install latest version of Gimp in case there have been any improvements (5 minutes)
- attempt to work out how to do the job in Gimp (20 minutes)
- give up and do the job in Photoshop (5 minutes)

I wish Gimp made sense to me, as Photoshop is pretty much my only unlicensed bit of software nowadays. I justify it to myself on the basis that if I wasn't using Photoshop then I wouldn't buy any of their competition (because I would be fighting with Gimp)
