I know that Adobe is supposedly the best but, I'm looking for something free, or cheap and intuitive. Photo shop is way too sophisticated and I don't need it or need to spend the time learning it. They will just find something more complicated next week, so hook me up with one that works without a learning curve!

1. I Know of Two
ArcSoft Photo Impression - It came with our digital camera. Very easy to use.

Babya Photo Workshop - I downloaded it for free when we got our new PC. It seems to work fairly well

For a freebie, it does a lot.

3. GIMP...General Image Manipulation Program...
free and VERY powerful. Dont know if it's ported to windows tho. But if youre using linux or mac, you're good to go.
