    I've always rather liked CorelDraw! but I've never seen anyone else use it.

    Just create ya background first. Then drag drop ya fundamental image ontop of it...

    Play around with it til ya happy positioningwise then u can flatten the layers so it becomes 1 image again...

    This is the problem with photoshop - the layers system takes a little getting used to!

    illustrator is awesome - all my label artwork/logos are done in it.

    and you can just 'save for web' and set it to the required size if your saving to jpg for websites etc :). :D
