Answer 1

While PSP may be easier to learn, I feel that Photoshop would be much more beneficial for you in the long run. So much can be done with Photoshop- features that you're going to be looking for when you become more advanced at digital scrapbooking.
Photoshop is an advanced program but there are numerous tutorials to walk you through step by step. Searching "digital scrapbooking tutorials" should provide you with plenty of information to sink your teeth into. Welcome to digital scrapbooking- you'll be hooked!

I personally prefer paint shop proX. I have never used it for digital scrapbooking, but i have used it to make graphics for myspace....and i love it. I have never been a fan of adobe. I hope this helps.

I haven't really used either, but i'm starting to get into digital scrapbooking as well, and just bought a program to go with my new Mac computer.

I'd say look at what each program offers, and see what you want to do with your pages, and if one offers more than the other one, then go with that one.

Happy scrapbooking!
