By the way i never understood what was the difference between Photoshop and paintshop. I have not used paint shop much but a few times i have used it. For me both appear same but some differences are there. I preffer photoshop and use it too. But what is the major difference between these two.

I am using Photoshop too. Sometimes i used Paint Shop as well when i have reformat my pc and not install Photoshop.
Photoshop has more features than Paint Shop, but take more memory to run.

Adobe photoshop CS3 is great and with great features i think it can do all the things we want with our images.It is best for webmasters advertiser compains and many times for print media and on the other hand paintshop is less comfertable.
