Yes, I've heard that about Photoshop, it's hard to compete with when it 
comes to Linux "equivalents".  I've also struggled with GIMP over the 
years, even just for casual use.  I believe it is quite powerful once 
it's "mastered", but have never had enough need for it to be motivated 
to learn it.  I suspect it will continue that way.  ;-)
