I just want to see an updated run of Jasc Paintshop 6. Basic photoediting capabilities without getting rid of the "traditional" paint functions. Gimp and Photoshop are too complicated.

I've had a lot of luck with Krita [krita.org].

Please do not suggest Gimp or PSP.
Perhaps inkscape [inkscape.org] is the GPL'd vector image editor you seek.
On topic: Everyone, please cease mentioning that Photoshop went to pot with the CS namechange, lest Adobe pulls a Comcast-esque rebranding.

The article leaves out quite a bit of the history of digital paint programs. This article [google.com] contains a good summary (although it also leaves out yet other work).
