I use Gimp for the majority of my photo editing. It is a free and open source program that is very functional.

I used Paintshop Pro X2 a long time ago. Do you realize that you can get an upgrade and that at some points the price of X3 and X4 has come down to $29 in various sales? You can also get a 30 day trial of new versions free. Have you tried versions of X3, X4 and X5 on free trials?

If you want to be a professional photographer, start studying business subjects, like accounting, record keeping, taxes, marketing, promotion, customer relations, salesmanship, how to research and write a business/marketing plan, etc.

Or the cheaper route is to get a photographic job where you are supplied with whatever equipment you need or want.
