I started out with PhotoImpact Pro 10. But I've found myself using Elements 4 about 99% of the time.

IrfanView for image browsing, EXIF extraction, straight resizing of "unedited originals" for posting.
Photoshop 5.0 (yes, about 10 years old now) for most image editing. I occasionally use PS CS2 at work if I have to do some significant upsampling (enlarging).
CAMEDIA Master 2.0 (came with my Olympus camers) for printing proof sheets (usually to a PDF file).
I very occasionally use the Fuji FinePix Viewer (came with another camera) mostly for this cool detail view, where you get spreadsheet-like info for a folder of images -- useful for tracking inventory of stock and print images ...
I do all my copying of files and naming of folders by hand, using only the OS (either Windows 2000 or Mac OS 9). |

Adobe PS CS2 - final editing (if needed, most editing done in Lightroom)
Adobe PS Lightroom - RAW conversion, photo organization, printing, web galleries
Adobe Premier Elements for slideshows/video editing - beats Pinnacle Studio 9 hands down (IMO anyway)

PS CS2 always
picasa(free) use it heaps as an organiser and to do quick improvements to see how a shot might look and judge whether to invest time in it.
flaming pear flood haven't used it much, just for fun
virtual photographer which I muck around with occaisonally too and I was having a look at panos fx, some freebies on site which look interesting, haven't tried any though.
Capture One for raw conversion occasionally which I think I have lost due to a reformatting of the C drive. I must download it again. |

* Irfanview for viewing and browsing (wouldn't have a PC without it)
* Adobe Photoshop CS2 for all my editiing.
* Power Retouche plug-in for Photoshop (should be an integral part of PS imo and wouldn't be without it)
* Virtual Photographer suite of filters.
* Photomatix for HDR and Tone-Mapping images.
* Numerous filters, effects and actions from Action Central

Photomatix Pro
Photoshop CS2
Adobe Lightroom (excellent software for RAW)
Sometimes I use Aperture on my G5 but find it a bit slow against the new LIGHTROOM..

It seems like I use a little utility called "Recycle Bin" the most. |

CS2, Bridge and iPhoto (for slideshows, books, prints, burning and archiving/organizing).
I'd like to use Aperture, but I'm doing all my editing on an eMac (CRT monitor). Aperture needs more RAM than it can provide. |

iPhoto-organizing, slide shows etc.
CS2-all processing, except straightening (I like doing this with iPhoto better)
want to check out Lightroom too... |

Have to agree with that. Lately I've been doing almost all my editing in lightroom with only short sojourns into CS2 if necessary. |

I'm going to break with the crowd here and declare something many of you have darkly wanted to confess but felt too afraid: Adobe products are RUBBISH! Not 100% without redeeming features, but in terms of user interface, i find PS full of absurd inconveniences (not as bad as inDesign, which i have to use for the newspaper though).
I use on a daily basis Corel Photopaint (from the Corel 11 suite), which is not at all dissimilar but far far nicer to use :) I'm frankly amazed that i don't see more people here using it...

iView for importing/filemanagement
PS CS2 & CS3 Beta for all else

Aperture 1.5.2 for importing and managing. Fast, effcient on a MacBook Pro w/ 2GB SDRAM.
PS CS2 for external image editing as needed. |

I use iPhoto for import and Bridge/CS2 for the rest. |
