For those without Photoshop.....
Paint.NET (voted best free image editor)
I know there's a lot of folk that don't have Photoshop so here's a free alternative to the likes of photoshop. Paint.NET offers many advanced features such as layers, a colour replacement tool, auto-levels correction etc.
I've just downloaded it to see what it's like - will let you know.

Let us know what you think Phil - never heard of it before.
I was going to suggest GIMP as Ive heard of that one before. Do you use it Stormey? What do you think of it?

Been having a play with Paint.net and it seems pretty good. All the usual whacky filters and very obviously designed to look just like photoshop.
I just wish I knew about it when I didn't have photoshop. There's a small bit on it in 16-29 Aug edition of Webuser magazine.
