1) Graphics editor

gimp is the most capable image editor available for Linux AFAIK.  There are other image editors, but I don't think I've used any of them in the last 15 years.  The problem that a lot of people seem to have with gimp is that it doesn't work exactly like photoshop.  If gimp doesn't work for you, you might want to describe why it doesn't work, and then people could suggest other programs.  I had to Read The Fine Manual before I could use gimp to do anything at all....

2) Movie editor for YouTube style stuff

Don't know; I don't work with movies very much.

3) (X)HTML editor - would like a wysiwyg editor where I can look at
the code and switch views so I can see what the HTML/CSS might look in
a browser.

Since IE renders HTML differently from Safari, which renders HTML differently from Firefox, I don't know that WYSIWYG is really *possible* in this context.  People have tried--I remember the "bluefish" project at the very least, and there might be a fork of Mozilla Composer somewhere out there.

What I've usually done here is set up apache running on localhost, put the HTML files into /home/me/public_html/somewhere/ (if UserDir is enabled), then point my browser at http://localhost/~me/somewhere/ .  Then I point my text editor at ~/public_html/somewhere/ , make changes, save the changed files, and push "reload" in the browser.  This is probably not what you really want to do, but it'll show you *exactly* what it'd look like in the browser.
