Re: Photo Editng software

There is a trial version of Capture if you need to do RAW editing.

Re: Photo Editng software

Try paint.net. If that isn't powerful enough, try Gimp. If Gimp's too tricky to use, pay for Paint Shop Pro or Photoshop Elements.

If Gimp isn't powerful enough, you need Photoshop.

Re: Photo Editng software

If you just want a good photo editing software then Corel's Paintshop Pro is excellent value for money. It has an excellent wizard for fixing red eye..

If you want the full fancy smanshy stuffed full of all sorts of artistic goodness and you have extremely deep pockets($900-$1700) then Adobe's Photoshop Pro is for you..the cheaper less full on version is Photoshop Elements which is good value for money as well.(£100)

If you go for free then the Gimp is similar to Photoshop and there are so many free applications offered free with new digital cameras or on the various free to try or downloads link pages that Google or Yahoo is your friend..It really all depends what you are after.

Re: Photo Editng software

Photoshop Elements 8 (Latest version) can be had for approx £40-£50

Personally I find GIMP fiddly to use. But Picasa is good for simple fixes (and its free)

Maggy i agree Paintshop is good, the only thing that lets it down on the latest version is it takes bloody ages to install.
