I used to have Paintshop but then got Photoshop 7.0. Paintshop is basicly a less complex version of Photoshop but with less features ect. Photoshop in the end is much better and personaly after using it for a while its not that complicated. So I sugest getting Photoshop in the end. And if you find it alittle hard there are 1000s apon 1000s of tutorials for you to learn everything.
