I like Photoshop... If you can find a lite edition you can upgrade it as you can afford it.

I use Photoshop 6 and LOVE it! There are so many options and little tweaks here and there that they sell a 3-inch thick book on how to use it. It is quite expensive though...

Another vote for Photoshop. I've only owned it for about 7 months (I wish I could work with it more and I would probably be better with it) and I think it's the greatest.

Paint Shop Pro 7 is what I know and love. I think it's great... Of course I've been using it since version 4 or something like that, and have never used Photo Shop.

Another vote for Photoshop. I've been using it since version 3.0 and would find it hard to live without.

It's currently on version 7.0 and it's is pricey...but you can find older versions or even used versions for sale at resonable prices. Any version later than 5.0 is just as capable as the current version (give or take some minor details).

The upgrade to 7.0 isn't all that bad either. Is there any limit on how far you can go back?

I have heard people gushing over the healing brush and some other brush improvements.
