I have 2 questions/problems that I could use some help with. Do you know of a free program that is similar to Photoshop? I have a lot of pictures that I want to enhance, and everytime I just go to school and do it because the computers there have Photoshop, but I can't keep doing this forever. Also, do you know of any programs where I can mix and make music for free? Thanks.
For photos, I would check out Picasa. It has some simple editing tools and it's free. Not sure about your other question.
If you are used to photoshop, use gimpshop, free and same layout as photoshop. For free audio mixing/recording, you can use Audacity, but it kind of sucks, the good stuff is not free.
If you have MS Office: Start > Programs > MS Office > MS Office Tools > MS Picture Manager. Simple solution
