I'm not the most advanced Photoshop user but after 12 years I've made the switch to Gimp for all of my personal and professional use. Unfortunately most designers are still on Adobe so I am stuck with Photoshop and Illustrator when working with others.

Would you say that switching to Gimp added to your professional toolset, or enabled you to do anything that you weren't able to before? Does it make you more competitive professionally?

It has for me.

I can download and work on GIMP virtually anywhere on the planet on virtually any computer for absolutely free.

That is not possible with Adobe Anything.

I would say so. I can do the graphics for my projects without having to requisition a copy of PS
