Few Great software For Beginners Photographers

[Photoran]

Hi All,

Just wanted to share some great software for Beginners. Actually some of the software are used by professional photographers. Some of them are a great alternative for Photoshop and illustrator. The software are totally free.
Gimp

Inkscape

Luminance HDR

Fotosizer

Enjoy.

Personally, I've found GIMP very user-unfriendly and counterintuitive (I'm not denying that it's powerful, because it certainly is).

Another good, completely free, photo editor is Paint.net (Only for Windows - Paint.NET - Free Software for Digital Photo Editing). It's basic, but has pretty much all the features a beginner would want.

Personally, I edit with Canon Digital Photo Professional (Free, but only worth it if you shoot Canon RAW) and Paint Shop Pro (I'm on version X3) which has most of Photoshop's capability and is (IMHO) easier to use, but is a fraction of the price.
