The Microsoft one I downloaded was pretty strange. Looked like an upgrade of Paint.
Photoscape is interesting.
I miss my Nikon View. I loved the way it was set out. I like plain simple prompts. Maybe it's just a matter of spending time working through all the different features. I should be more patient. I'll check out Picassa next.
I used to have that Irfanview on a computer long ago. Just remembered that. No idea if that's any better than it used to be. I quite liked that at the time.
