I also have to ask which distribution of Linux you are trying? I personally recommend the main edition of Linux Mint, or if you prefer the glassy look of Windows 7 try the KDE version of Mint. If you have any problems feel free to PM me with any GIMP questions.
#Photoshop cs2 vs gimp install
When you install GIMP, if it isn't already installed, I suggest also installing the gimp-help package as this contains the full help package for GIMP.
The work flow when using GIMP is not significantly different from using photoshop (zero difference other than the menu layout). There is no such thing as a PS version for Linux, though you could try running it in wine. I am currently running GIMP on a Linux machine. I also had a dual booting system but it never worked since Linux requires large downloads and I don't have a telephone line couldn't get the dongle to be recognised and hence the nVidia needed to drive the monitor, although some claimed success in forums by typing longhand details in small print inside the dongle but I'm dyslexic and can never type 30 digit long numbers. I've got Gimp but never use it and don't know anybody who buys photoshop who does.
#Photoshop cs2 vs gimp software
My software costs around £150 because I bought PSE7 and stuck Topaz and Helicon in it. Given it's free, I'd definitely give it a go and see how you get onNot all elements is 8 bit resizing, cropping and more importantly running plug-ins are 16 bit, so it is possible like I do to process a file beginning to end in 16 bit PS using 16 bit plug-ins. I certainly haven't noticed it as being an issue on the GIMP pictures we have here from the likes of Donald, so perhaps I'm worrying about nothing. Mind you, so is Elements when you start doing clever stuff, but Photoshop CS is 16 bit capable throughout. It may not worry you Justin, but isn't GIMP 8 bit only?
