GIMP

The GIMP is a free open source "fauxtoshop" program. I downloaded it yesterday, and I am kinda digin' it. The interface is not a slick as our familiar Photoshop, but I might be able to get used to it. One thing that I like is the "script-fu" menu that includes little scripts that others have written. One that I tried wrapped my image around a sphere and made a spinning animation out of it. Neat-o.
