I'm looking for a free Photo Editor. When I switched to Windows 7, I discovered they no longer have the Editor built into the Picture Viewer. I loved the "Auto-Fix" function.

My needs are simple, does anyone have any suggestions?

thanks,

Dave

GIMP is there, but it may be a little 'high end' for what you need.

It is free though and does have good online help.

Second the GIMP. Will do just about anything.

I would ask Alan Baugh of Birdemic II: The Resurrection 3D… imdb.com/title/tt1674047

He does alot of Editing.

I like Google's Picassa.
Their autfix function is "I'm feeling lucky"

GIMP can be a bit much. Try Paint.net

I fully second, Irfanview!

I use both Paint.net and GIMP. Both free so give them a try.

PzGeneral:@ Open your pics with Microsoft Office Picture Manager. I tend to bounce back and forth between that, Paint and GIMP, to get the job done. I concur that GIMP is a bit of a learning curve; I'm still just a tyro using it; but it is very versatile….

Thanks JV, I didn't know that function existed!
