Daniel, as you know, I also used to do all my work in CorelDraw, before I took the job at Macromedia. I still miss it sometimes, but I've gotten so used to Fireworks now that I can hardly imagine working any other way.

Photoshop's UI is simply painful. There are no simple features there. Mostrograms give you, say, a paint brush and let you paint, leaving the high-end trick stuff for later learning. Not Photoshop. No, in Photoshop, that same paint brush tool wraps all features, from novice to guru, in one UI, such that learning to do even the simplest thing in Photoshop means you have to master some very complex ideas about how each tool works. I can't stand it, and I've been using various graphics software professionally since 1983.
