    Default Photoshop on Linux?

    Will Photoshop run properly if your system is running Linux? I've gone to Adobe.com but it doesn't mention Linux.

    As lainlives said. Photoshop 7 and 8 work acceptably well under wine, but the GIMP can replace Photoshop for almost any use, especially in conjunction with Inkscape.

    Alright, well I suppose I will use the Gimp and Inkscape because I have a copy of CS2 and I'm not fond of paying to buy Photoshop 8 and on top of that I would be going backward in versions.

    I found a program called CrossOver Office and it is supposed to run Adobe Photoshop for Windows on a Linux environment.

    Not sure if that's the perfect solution though.

    So does Photoshop. If you want free, you've got the answer... GIMP.
