Try WINE.
http://www.winehq.org/

It allows you to run windows applications in Linux. You wont need it though because there is native Linux software for every windows app.

Smart choice to switch to Linux. Fedora rocks!

Gimp |= Photoshop

Ye you can actually get Adobe cs2 running perfectly on Wine now (that was a while ago when I tried to totally switch to Linux. So you can probably get CS3 running).

I mean you can even install Direct X 9 on wine now.

If your new to Linux I would reccommend trying Ubuntu instead of fedora. Its pretty noob friendly and VERY compatible.
