Advantages: Power, features

Disadvantages: Price

Photoshop has become the daddy in graphic editing whether you are in the industry or just playing about at home. Nothing comes even close, the only one that even dents the power of PS is Picasa on Linux.

CS4 is one of the newest editions, and offers a clean and crisp interface while maintaining all the power and features of previous versions. People can be put off by the price but considering the extent to which Photoshop dominates the market, the price could be a lot higher as Adobe almost have a monopoly.

People can get confused between Illustrator and Photoshop, IL is for the creation of new designs, PS is for editing current photos or images and tweaking them. There is certainly some cross over, but make sure you choose the correct application for your needs.

All I can say is, buy Photoshop and just start playing around as that is the best way to learn!

I mentioned the price in the discussion, however I didn't actually list the exact price because it fluctuates a lot and depends on the OS, and whether you buy the full version or just the upgrade.

But just for you, if you can find PS CS4 for c. £550 then that's a bargain (at the moment that is!).

And to describe what PS does would take weeks if not months! The list of tools built in is huge! But roughly it is a pixel based gfx editor, used to edit and improve images in layers (I.e. each area of an image is a layer, see my profile pic, the brown, green and yellow are each sep. layers, my polo is another and my face another, all placed on top of one another).

Hope that helps a bit...
