Here is your best answer...  Go to Google and type in The Gimp, and start downloading.  The Gimp is a free open source application designed to work exactly like the extremely expensive Adobe Photoshop.  You won't find anything better for "free".

If you want a free program, try The Gimp or GimpShop.  They work pretty much the same as Photoshop but aren't quite as big resource hogs (though there are fewer tutorials on using gimp than photoshop)

Try some of these, they are all free.\nYou may have to look up some tutorials to do exactly what you want ... the programs don't do all the work, you have to know how to use the tools in them to accomplish what you desire to.\n\nhttp://wang.zhenzhou.googlepages.com/\nhttp://www.photobie.com/\nhttp://www.plasticbugs.com/index.php?p=241\nhttp://www.freeserifsoftware.com/software/PhotoPlus/\nhttp://www.photofiltre.com\nhttp://fileforum.betanews.com/detail/PaintNET/1096481993/1\nhttp://park18.wakwak.com/~pixia/\nhttp://www.snapfiles.com/reviews/Project_Dogwaffle/dogwaffle.html
