What photo editor????

Hi

I what a decent photo editor software and would be grateful as to what you would you recomend. I'm willing to pay if it is worth the money , but like us all on this site I would prefer to cut his to the bone or consider freeware if it was any good and easy to use??
Thanks for your intrest and comments.

  • GIMP is free and does quite a bit. Another option is to get a free trial of Photoshop from Adobe's site.

    Photoshop or Photoshop Elements, however you may be just as happy with Picasa.

  • Try GIMP out you're not going to lose anything, once you get the hang of making selections and masks, and doing things to affect only those selections then all the others work in pretty much the same way. The only important thing GIMP lacks that the others have got is adjustment layers so if you decide you need those upgrade as and when.
