GIMP vs Photoshop vs Lightroom Poll Version 2!

Photoshop, Lightroom and fireworks.
Fireworks engine is better than Photoshop in compressing images for web-use.
better? how so?
as in faster or the quality is better?
eh? I would think its more of a best tool which IMHO is a wacom tablet after scanning the pic
GIMP for me!
Firstly, it's FREEEEE!!!
and it does just about everything i need (as a beginner hobbyist) in a photo editing program.
I have no doubt that if I were a professional, GIMP would somehow limit my editing abilities.

I think the categories are not right.
GIMP and Photoshop belong primarily to the Create & Edit category.
Lightroom goes to the Edit category.

Photoshop has the pen tool to do that.
But I always use Illustrator to do anything that's nothing to do with editing the photo itself.
Hi, new to this. May I know what is the difference between photoshop and lightroom? Pls enlighten me.Thanks
well simply put lightrooom is like a super improved version of adobe bridge for handling batches of photos and improved version of elements tied together..
but if u do only a few photos and heavy photoshop
then lightroom doesn't work for it..
its more like a workflow solution ..

i do most enhancement in lightroom. and add watermark (or signature if thats what its called) in photoshop. i dont think there's a way to add text in lightroom?
Mainly use Paint.NET.
Pros :
1. Free
2. Simple enough to use as is
3. I started out with it and find no use to 'upgrade'
4. Good enough for my '1min PP' (ie. levels, curves, contrast, crop, B/W)
5. Add plug-ins (again free) and it really quite powerful
Cons:
1. No good scissors tool (but then I don't want to spend too much time doing this anyway)
2. Less power layer (esp. no layer mask AFAIK)
3. Many tutorials will refer to Photoshop techniques, which will be hard/cannot be applied using Paint.net (main source of techniques will be fro mthe Paint.Net forums)

Sure you can. Use the Mogrify Plugin: http://timothyarmes.com/lr2mogrify.php
Lot's of options to insert into the picture or create a frame where you can place the caption into.
