Firstly, what version of Photoshop are you trying to install? If it is one of the CS versions forget it. If it is version 7 or lower, good, that can work.
Check your version of wine
You will need wine version .9.52, .9.52 has made running Photoshop 7 a snap and the little glitches with the pallets are gone. You can check your version by running this in the terminal:

- Type in a descriptive name (e.g.Photoshop)
- Type in the command (e.g. wine "c:\program files\adobe\Photoshop 7.0\Photoshop.exe")
- Add a comment if desired (e.g. Edit photos)
- Click on the button that edits the icon. choose a generic icon or navigate to one you have saved already.
Using the windows path to run the program works best rather than using the linux path to the program. Using the linux path in the past has killed the ability to "Save for web" in Photoshop. So stick with the windows path for now.
And that's it, you should be able to run Photoshop 7 or lower.
