Recently I’ve had the need to do some image and photo editing, but Microsoft Paint isn’t really up to the job and I don’t want to spend money on something I don’t plan on being good at.
I started of searching Google and found The GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program). The GIMP is a lot like Photoshop, except that it’s free. I used it for a while, accomplished a few useful tasks, but found it tedious overall. That’s probably because I don’t know what the heck I’m doing though.
Earlier today I found Paint.NET which was originally intended to replace MS Paint. Although I had already done what I needed using The GIMP, I thought I’d give it a shot anyway. Paint.NET is actually pretty cool! It is more for beginners, so while trying it out I didn’t feel so much like an wandering idiot.
Any way, if you need some good, free image editing software check ‘em out.
