Graphics Editor For OSX?

I’ve been playing with my new mac over the last day or so and I will be posting a few thoughts once I’ve had a chance to try out more of the functions. I’m still in the “what does that do?” and “how do I do that?” stage, so I’m not going to make any comments as yet.
One of the things that I am looking for is a reasonable graphics editor. I’ve no interest in forking out for PhotoShop as it would be overkill for my needs. I’ve heard The Gimp is available for OSX, but I hate it, so that’s not an option.
Ideally I’d be looking for something along the lines of Fireworks or PaintShop Pro. Commercial software would be fine, but I don’t want to spend more than $100.
Any sane recommendations welcome
(please don’t start telling me how wonderful the Gimp is. You’re just going to annoy me!)
