Please list free software for photo editing.

Picasa by Google http://picasa.google.com/
Basic photo enhancer with some nice cataloguing, slide show and web functions. Picasa viewer is very impressive because of it's speed of operation and wide range of files type it can handle.


I just found this one called VirtualStudio
http://www.optikvervelabs.com/virtualStudio.asp
It comes with a surprising range of photo enhancement tools. The interface is clean and easy to use unfortunately the help files are pretty skimpy on details. It includes a plugin that can also be used in adobe products.

GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a freely distributed piece of software for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring. It works on many operating systems, in many languages.

Rawtherapee is my favourite free raw processor. That said, I do prefer LR by, well, a lot. And a +2 for Gimp!
