I have used PSE for many years, but I wonder if anyone knows if there is an alternative to Adobe.

I would prefer a trial period, but I feel myself getting stale and lazy, so I may even consider purchasing something on spec, to stimulate the grey-matter

Adobe has really helped me to turn-around some fairly dull pictures, but I think it may be time for a change.

Thanks for any comments or advice

Gimp? (it's the name of a free photoshop alternative , not what I'm calling you :))

MS Paint?
irfanview is good. Remember to download all the tools and plugins. It's free.

Thanks for the suggestions ChuckFickens, squarebear and TTG,

I looked at the sites, and I'm not sure they will work for me. But, as the price is right, I'll try them for a few weeks and then make a decision.

Much appreciate you taking the time to reply

OS
GIMP is powerful but has a significant learning curve. It is going to be around a long time and just keeps improving. Worth the effort to learn.

Another good free alternative is Paint.Net It is a bit easier to learn though has less features.
