    To do my graphic designing work I am currently using Photoshop CS5.1 Extended. It provides all the features I need in one-handy and extremely nifty program, which makes my work rate much higher than using standard software such as paint, And also makes my work easier and quicker compared to GIMP and such a like free graphic design programs which are not really that great to be honest.

    I use Photoshop and gimp for my everyday stuff, The logo you see up there is designed in Gimp. I am not that much skilled when it comes to graphics, just a basic idea of colors and softwares and that is all.

    If I need to modify a PSD to personalize a logo, the only way is through Photoshop.

    Otherwise, i stick to good old Paint. :))

    Photoshop is good for everything, But Gimp has a plus point that it is open source and have as many features (+ expendable) as Photoshop.

    Yeah I have heard of that but did not really like it, in fact I like Microsoft Paint the new version in Windows 7 better. And I obviously prefer Photoshop over all of them.

    My netbook came with a bunch of spam programs/antivirus free trials and the like, and it came with the Corel word package. I feel they are just ripping off of real programs such as Word and Photoshop. I'd advise you to get the real thing instead.
