Are there any good image design programs that are free? Good for designing things like simple album covers?

Good news is design is all about your imagination & most of the time a thing called 'scalable vector graphics'. Most working designers could do what they do on very old versions (V8 on) of Adobe Illustrator. It's not about latest versions. For a freeware download you could try Inkscape 0.45. It supports shapes, paths, text, markers, clones, alpha blending, transforms, gradients, patterns and grouping. If you aren't sure what they mean...you soon will be! If you're using 'bitmap' images in your designs the quality of your photos & scans are the key factor, not the software. Good luck...enjoy it.(And yes...I work in digital imaging!) It's a shame but Adobe never offer their old software for cheap or free download.

GIMP is excellent. I use it. It's free and there's tonnes of tutorials on how to use it on the internet, especially youtube.
