I normally use Photoshop, but I've also used the GIMP, Illustrator, and Macromedia Fireworks.

Coral Draw is a Vector Graphics program.

In Photo Shop, images are represented as pixels.

In Coal, its represented as Vectors (Macromedia Flash also represent objects as Vector).

I don't know much difference between Coral and Photoshop. Its mainly used for DTP. Brochure design, visiting card design, etc...

Correct me if i am wrong :D

haha...
i know what a vector is in Physics, but what about now?
will try out Corel soon

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.

I guess I use more often Corel Draw than Photoshop (and others, Illutrator, Canvas). But that's not because corel is better or something, im just more used to it.

If you're asking about web design software, then I would say Photoshop all the way.

But for other purposes, I use Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro, CorelDraw, Flash.

ok, for those who don't know the difference between bitmap (raster) and vector graphics, here is the explanation:

Bitmaps or raster images are dependent on resolution. They are formed pixel by pixel. Hence given any bitmap image, if you try to enlarge it, it will appear distorted since it is resolution-dependent.

On the other hand, vector graphics are formed by lines and curves determined by mathematical functions......hence, when you draw an image in a vector software like Illustrator, CorelDraw or Flash, it is entirely formed of lines and curves.
Vectors are independent of resolution, hence if you scale their size, they will retain the original quality with hardly any loss (because everytime, the image is recalculated mathematically)
This is particularly useful when you are creating some image where you don't know what the final output size would be.
