Paint .NET

Paint.NET is a great free photo-shop substitute, its more powerful than windows paint but not overly clogged with "features" like GIMP or PS. It's got almost any basic feature you would need to edit home/phone/pro pictures, great for prepping photos for web use.


To prep a photo for the web using Paint.Net:

1. Select "Image>Resize..." (Ctrl+R)
   
2. Set the width as 800 (be sure that "Maintan aspect ratio" is selected)
   
3. Click Ok (Enter)
4. Select "File>Save As..." (Ctrl+Shift+S)
   
5. Make a name for your photo (example: "MyPhoto_Edited")
   
6. Make sure you save it as a JPEG file type.
   
7. Click save (Enter)
   
8. Then set the quality to 75 and click Ok (Enter).

I give it 4 Stars

NOTE: Paint.Net requires that the .NET Framework be installed, a link is provided at Paint.NET's web site.
