I started with Gimp and then moved on to other programs. I was actually mad when Gimp 2.x came out, as it changed the UI and most importantly all the keybindings in incompatible ways. For me it's exactly the opposite, and I get pissed every time I hear that. Want PS? Keep using it. I actually found Photoshop one of the worst UIs I ever tried circa ~2005 (I no longer do a lot of photo editing). It reminds me so much of Autodesk's "Autocad" popularity and market penetration it's saddening (hint: autocad is shit too).
