Question Best free photo-editing software

Hello!

I'll preface this with I am a total amateur in the world of digital photography and I currently use ifranview to do all my editing (which includes about 5 functions save the crop).

So, I am mainly interested in a slightly intuitive program to edit photos; although I am proficient with a computer I simply do not have the desire yet to spend an hour or more editing photos. And of course, I am primarily looking for a free program at this point, unless there really are just no suitable programs available.

Thanks for your time and suggestions!

Welcome to the wonderful world of DPS!

I recommend you take a look at this thread. It has loads of information about everything, but you can scroll down to the "What are some free programs that I can use for photography?" and get all the information you ever wanted and more!
