Re: Does anyone use
Bought it, tried it and never really used it. I can accomplish the same type of stuff with Photoshop; effectively it has a few bells and whistles that Photoshop doesn't have (and the reverse can be said too).
I would suggest having one or the other, but having both is rather redundant.

Re: Does anyone use
Very interesting but, unless it will be a total substitute for Photoshop, it seems pretty expensive...

You could use it to replace Photoshop, minus the RAW converter. In reality, it is more targeted at the graphic arts community.

Re: Does anyone use
I worked with Painter long time ago and it had pretty cool painting tools. You can add a canvas texture and there are many types of brushes, like crayons and pencils, that react to the canvas, so you can paint with textures.
It was nice playing with Painter, but I am not an artist myself, so I went back to GIMP.
