If you do some serious image manipulation there seems to be no way around Photoshop. Although I am already used to gimp and achieve the same results as with Photoshop some things could be more convenient in gimp. I know that gimps goal is not to be a Photoshop replacement but for my field of usage it is. Today I found another nice tool (taken from a list of most wanted Windows software for Linux list… where they presented some good replacments). And as Photoshop substitution the Pixel Image Editor is amazing. This tool truly can claim to be a Photoshop clone. Sad but fair thing to mention: the pixel image editor is no freeware. It costs $32 which seems affordable even to hobby photoshoppers. And you can try a 30 day evaluation version. Another big plus: it is available for nearly every platform (Win, Mac, Linux, etc.) and on the “purchase benefits page” you can read this: “License is multiplatform, you can use it on more platforms at once”.
