The short answer is CorelDraw or Photoshop, and Illustrator (or Corel) if you plan on getting into vinyl or plastisol transfers

All have free trials available from the manufacturer, so you can try them and see what you like for yourself.

(the free alternatives often mentioned on the forums are also pretty good; not as good as the commercial packages, but you get a lot for free)
