neither... like you open a blank project and draw a line that makes a curve... like making a c... or an s.. do you know what i mean? for graphic design not photography

If you want to do graphic design tasks get the free vector application Inkscape. Draw Freely.

I haven't used GIMP, I got the educators deal from Adobe on a CS5/LR3.6 package. The more I use this combination, the more I am convinced that it is the best way to go. PS-5 is like the ocean. The possibilities for every function are endless. LR 4 (now) is a great way to organize and do light editing. You can jump back and forth between LR and PS easily too.
