If the programs have an uninstaller, then I would use that. Should be just as effective as it was in windows. If they don't have an uninstaller, then just delete the directories that they were in...

With WINE it really doesn't matter if you use the "official" uninstaller or not. You can just delete the Photoshop folder and that will be the end of it. The real Windows would complain, but Wine really won;t care.
