I personally use Picasa to organize pics. It's free too.
For post processing I use Paint Shop Pro X2. Great program. Does just about everything PS does at less than $100. You can probably find it on sale for around $70 or less.
I've used GIMP in the past as well but it's been a while. I even have a few good books on it that doesn't get too techy when explaining how to do things in it.
Use what you think you're comfortable with though. There are people that will tell you the program they use is the best in the world but if the interface isn't easy for you to use then you'll get frustrated with the learning curve.
