I learned my Photoshop skills on a pirate copy of PSP7. Good memories. Alas, my workflow has been 100% Adobe since '06. I couldn't go back at this point.

It has been tempting, though. I'm stuck at Adobe CS6 with no upgrade path, because I hate the entire concept of SaaS. I have high hopes for Affinity, but I have occasionally wondered at the PSP/CorelDraw combo as well.
