30 years after switching to Linux, I still have to use Photoshop because the gimp is still trash.

I played with PhotoCraft, it launches on less than a second, and while still missing features and isn't even a 1.0 release yet, it's better than the gimp already.

And it opened all my psds perfectly.

    I know it is aimed at digital artists but I highly recommend Krita as a photo editing alternative. Even with it not being the primary focus it knocks all the socks off Gimp. Unsure of psd support though!
