"..we’re using MS Paint while we would like to use Photoshop."

Ok i feel some of the authors pain on getting complex layouts right, managing lots of different density image resources, etc. But what in android dictates what graphic editing software you have to use? I'm happily using Photoshop for my resources.

What I meant was that the current system feels like Paint while I would like something with the power of Photoshop.

Sorry for the confusion, English isn't my native language :)

Ha! I don't think its your English that failed, its mine...

Now that I agree with. The ui tools are not first class though they're improving slowly. There's a ton of power in there but one hits a lot of speedbumps on the way to building good layouts that work on many devices.
