I'm truly jealous, or the very least in admiration!

I don't know about jealous, but there is definitely a desire to be able to use Photoshop as a full part of the creative process. I am an amateur photographer, that means I earn my money doing other things, and as such am limited in the time I can commit to photography. Skills like post-processing remain on a need-to-know basis. I'm pretty good at it, but use it primarily like a dark room - I crop, I dodge and burn, and I work with things like saturation, contrast, and sharpness. I also do minor corrections such as spot removal. But the notion of using Photoshop as a truly creative tool is beyond me.
