I'd like to be given an image-editing program for Christmas, but it can't be Adobe Photoshop because my home machine is old and well below the minimum specification for the latest versions. I plan to crop/flip/retouch/lighten/etc my camera's JPG images.
Can anyone recommend an alternative program? I have Windows XP SP2; 800 MHz CPU; 640 MB Ram; lots of disc space. The motherboard won't allow any further Ram upgrade.

Google have a very good free photo product called picasa, which handles basic edits.
GIMP is another good free solution, which is more like Photoshop.

i always found photoshop better than paintshop - cause i found photoshop first and used it for a few years, i never got used to the differences when trying paintshop. that and i downloaded it so prices never were an issue lol
