Learned Fortran on an old TI-99; forgot Fortran; learned to draw, paint, sculpt, and play violin; learned how to merge code and art, turned it into my UX/Front-end dev Frankenthing.
Honestly, I've used GIMP and Adobe, both, and I've found that there's not much difference between the two beyond the licensing and cost. If I have to make PNGs, JPGs, or other raster images, I use GIMP these days.
Admittedly, I don't use it much anymore, as most of my graphics work as of late has been vector (SVG) or something I create out of HTML and CSS, both of which I hand-code in Notepad++.
As far as changing text while keeping the same font, I've found that the text element in SVGs can be extremely versatile. Instead of selecting a color for a font, you can add in all sorts of patterns and filters using 'fill' in your CSS. If you include your SVGs in the head of your HTML and reference them as needed in the body, you can even use CSS classes to your advantage by specifying fills and strokes that change the color scheme for all your SVGs at once.
Also, if you can get past the ugliness of the color combinations I used for the demos, you might be able to come up with some interesting new graphics tricks using CSS filters, var(), and keyframes.
