If you manage to make friends with the quirky interface (not nearly as quirky since v. 2.0), the Gimp is really a joy to use. I have limited experience with Photoshop but when I do use it I "think in Gimp". They seem very similar in terms of capability. On a technical note: with the GIMP you are limited to 8 bits per colour, in P-Shop to 16bits. There is a Gimp-on-steroids called CinePaint that is used by some Hollywood studios. It supports 32 bits per colour. And it's as free as the Gimp.
