Yup adobe photoshop is the best, apparently adobe photoshop 8.0 creative suite is better for the photographer as it can enhance shadows on pictures you take (make it lighter so its visible) oh yer and then there is the fact that you can create warped text along paths :D very fun to do ive gotten A++ in all my art assignments becuase I use adobe 8.0 to its fullest capabilities. that and the fact ive taken so many tutorials I've lost count.
