As there are a few of us here who use this program I thought I should let you now it's just had a major update.
Some of the new features include.
Smart Shapes Tools, which let you quickly adjust a shape’s outline with easy-to-use controls to get just the look you’re after;
Shapes palette packed with dozens of readily available shapes that are as easy to add as dragging and dropping;
Shape Style palette, so you can effortlessly create more polished and advanced shapes;
Convert Text into Shape, which allows you to convert type layers to shape layers and then easily apply gradients, shadows, strokes, or even reshape individual letters;
Smart Move Tool, which knows when you are working with image or shape layers and gives you just the options you need at that time;
Paint Selection Tool, which is the simplest and the fastest way to make even the most challenging selections in your images with just a few brush strokes; and
Light Leak effect, which makes it easy and fun to create stunning, retro-artistically illuminated images from any of your photos.

Very impressive update. Check out the tutorials, about a minute each, showing them off. The Paint Bucket tool is so much easier to use than in PS. Such a true Mac like experience and interface. Loving it!
