Photo Shop or PaintShop Pro? Help wanted

Everybody is doing such cool icons and banners and such and I want to do it, so, what's the best package to get? Right now I have windows 2000 but will probably  need something that will be usable on (ack) Windows Vista...

Advice??

As I use a Mac I haven't had much used PSP in a few years, but if you do go the Photoshop route, get Elements. I have Photoshop CS3 and love it, but if all you are going to do with it is make icons or retouch snapshots then Elements is more then enough. Elements would be far cheaper and would be less demanding on your system.

You could try downloading both softwares. I know that you can get a full trail version of Adobe software for thirty days... Not sure about PSP, but I think given that Adobe does it, they would have do it as well.
