Adobe Photoshop has long been the gold standard forimage editingamong professionals and photo enthusiasts.
GIMP
GIMP is the strongest competitor when it comes to free image editors.
GIMP supports keyboard shortcutsand offers numerous save options, specially for the web.
Artweaver
Artweaver is a very capable image editor with a limited but powerful set of tools.
Although its feature set is not as vast as GIMP or Photoshop’s, the tools available work great.
The filter list is also short but all the must-haves are there.
he interface is clean and familiar, with editing tools on the left and options on the right.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by Photoshop this is probably more along your alley.
For someone who is just getting started this a great choice.
In addition, Picasa’s integration with Google+ makes keeping an online backup of your photos a breeze.
