Yeah, photoshop has more brushes, but thats about it, and is hell hard to use, i would recomend gimp, anyone with a little bit of artistic talent and knows how to type "gimp tutorial" into youtube can get good at it...
Photoshop is a very expensive piece of software. I would recommend getting GIMP. Which is a free download.
Note anyone posting links to torrents, will be dealt with accordingly.
