Design Programs: Which one is best?

I use Photoshop to design all of my websites. I used to use Flash because I would only create flash sites, and because I got so good at it, I would only use that, until, someone told me that my designs didn’t look good and that I should design in a design program instead of a drawing program. I started using Photoshop after that and I must say that my designs have definitely improved. There are also some freeware programs available that have the ability to edit Photoshop files. The one I know of is Gimp. Very power, but not quite as user-friendly. The reason I like Photoshop is because it gives you the ability to slice up your designs so you can implement them into your HTML code very easily, and if you change your design colors slightly, you’re able to re-export all of the slices at the same time and re-upload them quickly. This saves so much time! What are your thoughts?
