Won't Photoshop run under Wine? Did she try any simpler Linux photo software?
Her copy of 6.0 wouldn't work under Crossover office. It wouldn't even launch.
I couldn't install photoshop 5, neither. First version that really run completely under crossover office (now also under wine) was 7.
She has Picasa running on Wine but it doesn't do what she wants.
Picasa basically does nothing but to show nice effects - which are, I must confess, really funny and impressing. But when you have seen it, there's no more use for it.
I plan to give her my copy of XP running under VirtualBox so she can run it in seamless mode to have Photoshop running.
That's probably the best idea. Then she can use the version 6 that she's used to. Changing to a newer or even actual version of photoshop would give her almost as much to learn as gimp. Has she ever tried digiKam? That's a great app. If it's not for photo montage I guess it can do at least everything a "photoshop elements" user would want to. And it's as easy to use at it can be.
