Photoshop, besides being an amazing image editor, always improves on itself. I have used every version of ps since 5.5 and I can truly say that i prefer CS3. Mainly I love the new dynamic filters

An awesome product although really confusing, maybe cause I'm just not a graphic designer and rather program any day of the week.. lol

I've been a fan since 3.0, and as a graphic professional, you can't beat the power, control, and power-drunkeness-inducing levels of micromanagement you can achieve with CS3. Everything from dynamic filters to our old friend the Pen tool makes computerized art better and easier (provided one has long familiarity with the Adobe family and/or is willing to scale a learning curve slightly steeper than Mt. Triumph).

Very much improved on from the previous CS2 version. Use it a lot when in school and bored at home. Great tool for digital graphics and photographers.

The Gimp 2.0 is Free

Newest and greatest version of Photoshop to date.

Pretty good stuff.. I find that it is easier to do some tasks in Corel Draw or Photo Impact and Fireworks

Definitel my prefered graphics software, this program has great tools to help you with and creative peice of work or with editing. It was easy to pick up and easy to learn. It defenitely makes coloring easy, at least it did for me.

Though the program is simple it's also very complicated, its very simple to get a basic understanding of it but its much more in depth then that if you care to use it for something more then just simple editing and design.

Easy to layout, I'd reccommend the product any day.

this is a great software
every designer should have it

I use all of these programs in school and love them. They have really done a great job on these

I started using Photoshop 5 years ago and this program has come a long way...This program is a beast I am constantly learning new things on it... Love it !

This is really good product but for the amount of money its better to buy the package. it is the program that every web/photographer/designer should have. even though the new cs4 just came out its good to upgrade this with what ever you have :D

it's great!

Love the added features in Photoshop. Soundbooth is also great since it goes with Premire well. When used properly all applications go together properly.
