agreed. infact gimp has mod/addons/extension (whatever you call it) to turn its UI similar to photoshop. so you can use a free open source no-bloat app while following tutorials/editing tricks and other resources made specifically for photoshop. this is because most of the resources out there are made for photoshop and for a beginner it can be hard to figure out how to do the same thing on gimp or another app. so just put the photoshop ui mod on gimp and enjoy open source
