Is There a Linux Version of Photoshop?

[Hyperreality]

I just got Linux Red hat, still trying to get use to it...

I am having trouble editing pictures and drawing diagrams using Open Office software. Is there an equivalent "Photoshop" for Linux platforms?

Arguably, there's GIMP http://www.gimp.org/
But, apparently, one can run Photoshop under Wine.

What specific things [file formats] are you trying to edit?

The GIMP can do almost anything photoshop can (including edit .psd format images).
It also has the advantages of
1: You don't have to pay a lot of money for it.
2: You don't have to spend hours trying to get wine to work good enough to run photoshop. (The most complicated program I've been able to run via wine is starcraft).
3: It runs natively in Linux, whereas photoshop will run slowly (if at all) in wine.

The GIMP's functionality can be extended via plugins: http://registry.gimp.org/

There are lots of other options as well: try http://linuxartist.org/ for more info. A lot of the packages listed there probably have binaries available for RedHat as well.

btw, if your new to linux I suggest that you switch to ubuntu, a lot more user friendly than redhat.
