hmm, actually I've never used PS and mostly worked with GIMP for my
little requirements here and there. Half the time i'd read up PS
tutorials and work a little out of the way to figure it out for GIMP.
That shapes my opinion.

I never said GIMP lacked features. I said it is not as obvious as
others. Again, how will one become a poweruser if he cannot get past
the initial curve? Let us be honest, for most beginners GIMP is a
little intimidating. That is not to say PS is more user friendly or
intuitive. A simple search ends up returning more PS methods than
GIMP. Why don't power users like you add more tutorials onto the web?

:) I am sure every gimp user knows these links. Anyway, it helps to
have it the same thread :)
