I've been happy with Gimp, but my demands are fairly limited.

Photoshop is a rather complex program. If you're not comfortable with it, then maybe you shouldn't use it. But since you seem to have Photoshop, search for Photoshop tutorials, as there are many on the web.

Are you talking about a layout mockup? Or what?

Only slice or (what I personally prefer) make selections of the parts that really need to be images (such as backgrounds, gradients (if you don't use CSS3 for that), decorative pictures).
Copy the selection into a new file and use Save for Web & Devices under the File menu to save the images. Of any other parts that consist of flat colors, take note of the (hex) color value, so you can use that as background-color in your CSS. |
