GIMP, poor man’s Photoshop??

[al_m473]

Just starting to get into this stuff, I don’t have photoshop and have downloaded Gimp which does
process psd files. I don’t know much about either Gimp or Photoshop, so not sure what the limitations
of Gimp are. Has anyone used both of these software products and can you comment on their use??

I like the videocasts that Chris is putting out where he is converting Photoshop mockups to XHTML/CSS
code, and was wondering if Gimp could be used to do the same as Photoshop.

Any commnt??

GIMP is good if you can’t afford Photoshop. It has many similar features. I have never been too impressed with the interface though. If you have the money to drop on Photoshop then do it. If not GIMP will be fine. You may also be interested in Photoshop Elements.
