* It has a far more elegant UI, Photoshop's antiquated MDI dseign is simply a waste of space, it's much better on the mac, but it sucks severely on win32. (That's wlug biased opinion, many disagree wholeheartedly with that.)
* Good Path support(well, it works for me) including export to SVG (and what is making that superior to Photoshop exactly?)
* Font Rendering with FreeType looks much better to me.
* if something in [TheGIMP] is causing you trouble then fix it, if you aren't capable of doing so, file a [bug report|http://bugzilla.gimp.org/] (so how is that superior to Photoshop for the task at hand; Suddenly DTP-people, image-editors and plain photo-enthusiasts need to be programmers?)

Actually, [TheGIMP] is rather easy to use if you know how to use PhotoShop. Some people will tell you that it is simply a PhotoShop clone - this is simply not true, and while the clone accusation is the first anti [GIMP] slander you're likely to hear, the next is bound to attack the UI because it doesn't behave exactly like PhotoShop. (I guess that's logic for you.)
Oh, and if you're some poor soul who uses a pirated copy of PhotoShop via [Wine] on [Linux] purely because you didn't like [TheGIMP] 1.2, you should really go and try one of the current development snapshots - in it's default state it's got a slew of "enhancements" which should make you feel more at home.
