				Does anyone know if there is a decent freeware picture editor available?
	
			 
             
			
		
		
		
		I want to have the capability to edit pictures, but I don't have any tools sufficient for the job, due to their age. 
 
I need new tools, preferably freeware, since I can't afford the cost of buying software.

		I think Paint Shop Pro has a demo.  Not sure how long it Lasts, tho. 
 
Otherwise, a search with keywords, "editor" "freeware" "photo" and/or "paint" might be fruitful.

		I recommend Gimp for windows, you can find it at  http://www.gimp.org there should be a link to "gimp for windows" when you scroll down a bit.
 
It has almost all the functions of expensive programs like photoshop, but it's free :-). There are a few issues, like it doesn't work very well with graphic pads like wacom etc, but other then that it's a great program.

 Under the Options menu, choose "Set Preferences".  On the "Interface" tab, turn off the checkbox for "Use interface pattern".
