Although it's not free Paint Shop Pro is MUCH cheaper than Photoshop and does just about everything Photoshop does.
As BirdOPrey5 mentioned...Paint Shop Pro and if you go on ebay and get version 9 or 10 it's even cheaper. It handles almost evrything PS does. And the newest version, PSP 13 even acts like PS in lots of ways, has a version of the Recompose, does jpf files natively, PS requires a plugin and uses all the same filters as well. IF the filter will run in Windows 7, it will run in PSP.I have PS7, and could never afford to upgrade. I recently bought a new laptop with Windows 7, and I'm reluctant to torture it with PS7 Before I do, however, I want to check out the alternatives. I'm about to start work on a new website (with forums powered by Xenforo ), so I need to install something ASAP.
