Greetings! Recently my wife and I have begun to take 50 -100 pictures each weekend with our Olympus D-550. As amateurs we are trying to learn more about our camera so that we are starting with better photos. In the mean time we are also looking at software to manipulate the images and improve the end result, either for onscreen enlargement and / or for printing. We would like to use and compare different packages. Does anyone have suggestions on the best places to download free photo-editing software? We have the SW that came with the camera, but it is so basic as to not be much value, other than to enlarge and crop. Any / all suggestions are welcome! For easy to use effects: http://www.ransen.com/repligator/ Repligator has a trial version. Unique and easy to use graphics programs http://www.ransen.com |

Easy to learn and can do anything that Photoshop can do at a much lower cost. As you might guess .... I'm lovin it. |

I looked at many, bought a couple, then looked at the current ACDSee.
In my opinion it is the best for general beginner to intermediate users. And I was also very impressed with their support.........I had a problem on a sunday night here in NZ and was amazed to get an email reply an hour later...goodness knows what time it was in ACDSee land! The problem turned out to be a setting on my own pc, which they showed me how to correct. Don't underestimate the value of very good service, DonB Greetings!
