Paint.Net is free image editing and photo manipulation software designed to be used on computers that run Windows, very similar to Paint Shop Pro but without the cost, It supports layers, unlimited undo, special effects, and a wide variety of useful and powerful tools. Paint.Net can be used to enhance and clean up your photographs. Using the Clone Stamp tool, the power lines that criss-crossed in front of the Space Needle can be carefully removed. Other operations have the effect of smoothing out the image without blurring it, adding some "bloom" (glow), and increasing the contrast.

FEATURES:

Simple,intuitive user interface every feature and user interface element was designed to be immediately intuitive and quickly learnable without assistance. It is also designed to be immediately familiar to users of the original MS Paint software that comes with Windows.

Layers
Usually only found on expensive or complicated professional software, layers form the basis for a rich image composition experience. You may think of them as a stack of transparency slides that, when viewed together at the same time, form one image.

Powerful Tools
Paint.Net includes simple tools for drawing shapes, including an easy-to-use curve tool, The Gradient tool, has been cited as a huge improvement over similar tools provided by other software. The facilities for creating and working with selections is powerful, yet still simple enough to be picked up quickly. Other powerful tools include the Magic Wand for selecting regions of similar colour, and the Clone Stamp for copying or erasing portions of an image. There is also a simple text editor, a tool for zooming, and a Recolour tool.

Unlimited History
Everybody makes mistakes, and everybody changes their mind. To accommodate this, every action you perform on an image is recorded in the History window and may be undone. Once you've undone an action, you can also redo it. The length of the history is only limited by available disk space

Do you know if there is anythign similar but that is able to work with Mac Systems? I have a Laptop with OS 10.3.9, and I haven't seen anything "free" like this Paint.net you are talking about.

Hey thanks for the links, folks. I use PC, so I think I'll check out paint.net.

Does it do animated GIF files? I took a shot of my sister-in-law sitting on her husband's lap at Christmas, and animated it so she was bouncing on him. :o
