They are 2 very different prospects.

If you can get good at both photoshop and illustrator, then you're a cover master.

Photoshop is great for working with existing artwork. Illustrator is a drawing tool. A professional level drawing tool at that. It's not easy. I've tried a few times to get to grips with it, and failed miserably.

For working with scans - go down the -htoshop route, at least to begin with.

Thanks for putting me on the right path. I will be downloading that free version of Photoshop then. I hope there are no limitations with that one.

E0N:
There are no limitations, it's the same as if you were to buy it back in the day.

I posted a free copy of Photoshop on our forums.

Thanks. I have been watching your tutorials on Youtube. I am uploading a raw scan of NBA Live 96' for SNES the US box. I used your tutorials to clean up the white and black areas with replace color. I also used donor images to remove the stickers. However, it is not perfect and I would like to know techniques to remove that piece of tape on the left of the main image. Also, the area where I removed the NBA sticker could use improvements. I used a lot of the clone stamp tool. I am open to critique and want to learn. This is very fun.
