Painting Programs

After working with different painting programs over the past couple of years, I've developed a very good opinion on what is better than the other.

There are several programs to choose from; Photoshop, Gimp, Chorrel, Open Canvas, and Sai are the most popular. Photshop, Chorrel, OC, and Sai all are paid programs. Gimp is free. It's also the worst one out of the group. It basically is the same thing as MS paint. 

Photoshop and Chorrel are the most expensive, but offer the most features. Sai and OC are cheaper but offer less features than Photoshop or Chorrel. From that, I believe that Photoshop and Chorrel are the best. From there, it's all up to what type of paintings you want. Photoshop gives works a refined, digitally made feel. Chorrel gives them a realistic, oil painted feel.

Basically what I'm trying to say is that people who want to use paint programs should look into several different programs before buying.
