I have just started using this program for basic digital photo stuff. It is very easy use and free to download. May be of interest to some people out there........

yeah i've used this breifly before mainly as a way of organising my photos. its pretty good value for £0 and does nice slideshows....however i sacked it off cos it doesn't support images on external removable drives which is what i was considering at the time...however since i've now got a new machine with big HD i should probably give it a try again.

If you want some free photo editing software, I've started using this, and it seems good so far.

Chris, this is just an image organiser, not an editing program.

I use the Adobe Bridge and the excellent Firehand Ember (http://www.firehand.com/Ember/index.html).

Photoshop Album (http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshopalbum/main.html) is very good too.

I'm getting a bit worried about Google's onward march to world domination :lol:
