You could possibly run in under Wine, but there are no guarantees.
Just a quick question, have you tried Gimp?
I do digital scrapbooking using Gimp and after finding my feet I just love it. To me (personally) Gimp is less complex than Photoshop
Hope this helps

If you can't get on with Gimp and you want to try installing in wine (install wine1.2 package), you can try following some of the instructions at http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=17

Hi :)

Yes please try Gimp instead. From the top taskbar click on

Applications - Graphics - Gimp

In 10.04 it was not included in the main install so it would need you to install it. Using the command-line
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal#Starting%20a%20Terminal
try

sudo apt-get install gimp

Please let us know how this is going!
Good luck and regards from
Tom :)
