I like GIMP bc it's free, and fairly easy to use with a ton of options. Honestly I wasn't sure if PS would be worth the money bc it has the same features, but the features work so much better on PS with a lot less effort. I couldn't tell you why they look clearer/sharper, idk if PS does better with saving, but I did the exact same thing in PS as I do in GIMP. Brightness/contrast, a tick of saturation, paint background white, add logo, and crop.
Time wise, I would say PS cut the time at least in half, maybe more, and like I said, that's the first time I've touched PS in a decade!
The cleanness of the PS pictures boggle my mind. That alone makes PS worth the money!
I was worried PS would be more difficult, but it's certainly easier/quicker than GIMP at least for what I do.
