In my case I use Photoshop kinda grudgingly, because it's the only package
out there that really does it all. For ease-of-use I think Jonathan Sachs'
Picture Window Pro kicks PS's ass. I use it too. But Picture Window Pro
lacks layers and layers are a Very Good Thing. So is the Channel Mixer. And
LAB color, the Pantone toning options, etc. So there ya go.
