Lol. PhotoImpact is a great program but I eventually had to learn Photoshop because you can't really get a job in the graphic design business without knowing Photoshop (trust me, I tried). There were a lot of good effects and tools in PhotoImpact. Bevel effects in PhotoImpact didn't look like **** like how Photoshop's bevels look.

I first got it with my first scanner when I was about 12 years old and I used the basic version for a certain amount of years to make fake IDs and report cards for myself so I wouldn't get in trouble until I bought the full version (it was well worth the money for me back then). It tought me a lot, plus PhotoImpact's help is way better than Photoshop's help feature. Photoshop's is a mess and so hard to learn Photoshop if you are new to it. If it wasn't for PI's nice help feature, I wouldn't have learned anything about graphics.
