The GIMP is powerful, don't get me wrong. You'll get used to it if you give it a try, and coming from somebody who's now been using Ubuntu exclusively for about 4 years, you'll come to adore its flexibility (of Linux in general).
The wonky part for me is that there are three separate windows, where as in Photoshop it's all one window with toolboxes that you can drag around. So if you minimize The GIMP, you have to actually minimize all three windows. This is a hassle. Plus, it's sometimes hard to make the windows stack in the right order.
Yeah, it only makes sense that the program should work with one workspace and multiple images inside of it. Especially if you are going back and forth to a document or something else. That does sound familiar.
Hubski is hosted on Linode, so I get a tad of Linux time, but I'd love to be more familiar. I have a ThinkPad that just crapped out, and although I have another Windows laptop on the way, I am going to see if I can rescue the ThinkPad and run Ubuntu on it. I really did like most aspects of it, and I'd like to keep a foot in that camp.
