I'd say that MacroMedia FireWorks is the best for Web work, for which it has
been specifially designed. PaintShop Pro is great and cheap, but just
doesn't measure up to FireWorks, especially when you are trying to render
text.
FW has superb tools for optimiziing Web images, and the scripting API is
EXCELLENT if you want to generate thousands of text-based images, possibly
based on database data. I do this all the time for generating navigation
images for our HUGE intranet.
Of course, Adobe has great stuff too (eg, ImageReady), and there is always
the excellent free GIMP, which is now available for Windows.
PaintShop Pro is an excellent learning tool, but eventually you will want to
step up.
