Thanks. Perhaps I'll fool with them when I get back from my travel.
Can you explain what makes Photoshop Elements better than the GIMP? Which features you need that aren't in the GIMP? Please notice, this is not a flame start, I just would like to hear from users what they think about it (the GIMP) and what (for the users) it still lacks... Perhaps I may discover some features I've never known of and that may enhance the quality of my pictures, you know...
I don't have a lot of time to do an analysis of GIMP vs Photoshop CS vs Photoshop Elements 3, but it isn't so much the feature differences as the way the programs work. GIMP's user interaction model is very clumsy to me, where Photoshop and Photoshop Elements are both easier to learn and easier to remember.
The biggest omission in GIMP, IIRC, is that it doesn't support useful color management, or that I never figured out how to get color management turned on ... same thing, in essence. That single omission is enough for me to forget about using it. I need to be able to make prints without problems and without having to recalibrate the setup constantly.
