What is the best photo editing program...Photofiltre. Gimp. etc?
Question Posted Thursday October 1 2009, 7:15 pm
I need a really cheap or free photo editing software program to help me alter my photos to look really good. I know Photoshop is suppose to be the best but I can't afford Photoshop so I'm looking for like a Photoshop ripoff, I guess. This girl at my school uses one program (I don't know which one) to amke her skin flawless and perfect. I want to do this too for my senior photos and stuff. Which program is the best and where can I find it?

For you, I think Photoscape suit your needs more. It is a good basic image editor that includes most of the basic functions, a gif animator, a batch editor, and a few more useful tools. You can also run filters and add frames, text, shapes, call-out boxes, and other objects to your image. It is very user-friendly and would not take you more than ten minutes to get used to the interface.
Also, just a side note, it doesn't matter what image editor you use; what matters is how you use it. If you don't know how to apply the effects and control the colors, even Photoshop is useless.
