If its a hobby for the moment and you're not rolling in cash, I'd say go for either Photoshop Elements (whatever the latest version is) or Photoshop 7. CS2 is a great tool but its crazy expensive, and if you're not working professionally it might not be worth it for the extra tools. As someone who's used all three there isn't a huge amount of difference between 7, CS1 and CS2, and the main differences are most beneficial for photographers and people who do photo editing, from what I can see. You should be able to get a second hand copy of Photoshop 7 at a fairly cheap price.
I haven't used Elements much, but for graphic design and digital artwork its still very good, is significantly cheaper than the full version of Photoshop, and you don't have to chance buying it secondhand. If you want to do a lot of heavy photo editing it might not be the best, but for basics it really has everything you need.
If you're more of an artist coming from a traditional media background, you might want to try Painter, which I haven't tried but have heard good things about biggrin
It all really depends on what you want to do with it and how much money you have to spend. You can download trial versions of most of these programs though, why not try them out and see how you go? Most trials have all functions and a 30 day time limit, so they should give you a pretty good idea of what they're capable of.

Catani miksago Catani there is freeware -gimp - which some like, some hate - it hasn't got as much abilities as ps or psp but is quite good too hangon don't call gimp freeware, it's opensource, isn't it? yup that's right but i meant more of a "free of use" than actual licensing details
Fair enough.
