Does anyone here use the GIMP open source photo editor? What do you like or dislike about Gimp?

I've used it in the past and have the latest version installed.

I find it has more of a learning curve than Paintshop Pro but is not as powerful as Photoshop.

But there are a few filters it has that I can't find anywhere else.

If money is a concern, it is definately the best of the free editors.

Thank you,hlmic! I'm using PS Elements 8 and wondered if the learning curve is worth the time spent to absorb all that. Are the extra bells and whistles worth the effort in your opinion?
