I use Picasa most often, but for a little more advanced editing & tools Photoscape is nice & free too.

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.

Personally, I use http://www.getpaint.net/]Paint.NET. It has maybe 80% of the features Adobe Photoshop carries, but it's completely free and runs very well on a Windows computer.

You could also try GIMP which is much closer to Photoshop capabilities for free software, but is also far more difficult to use.

Took 3 days off work (plus 2 for the weekend), doctor said mild concussion and did not order a CT scan.
Felt symptom free for two days in late January and late February.
Decided to exercise (skating in January, light cycling in February) and symptoms returned with a bang.

March 15 2012: Medically cleared to return to action! Thank you all for your kind words and support. For those still suffering, know that there is light at the end of the tunnel. Stay positive and healthy

[IrfanView is a very fast, small, compact and innovative FREEWARE (for non-commercial use) graphic viewer for Windows 9x, ME, NT, 2000, XP, 2003 , 2008, Vista, Windows 7. ]

It's still out there and free.
