Photoshop is bloody class. If only for the cloning tool.
Used to use it all the time at work. So I use MSPaint instead and pick up the pixels manually, still I'm probably the only person to use MSPaint to it's limits.
MSPaint is useful in that you can 10 or so open at once with a frame in each and alt+tab between them. I hate having them overlapping in PSP or Photoshop. The only thing I miss from PAint is a decent rotate and rescaling. Although you can do that easily in other progs.
But thanks to MykeP and his image wibbling routines. I can fiddle about with the colours and brightnesses and images with ease.
What matters is having the skills to draw. Otherwise you can have the best package in the world and still not make anything good.
