MMN Photo Sig -- Photo SIG: Photo Editing Software Survey

Hey folks:

I would like to know what software you have (regardless of whether or not
you actually use that software) to organize and edit your digital photos.

Here are a few examples that I happen to have laying around:

* Adobe Photoshop Elements (purchased from Adobe)

* ArcSoft PhotoStudio (was included with my Panasonic camera)

* DiMage Viewer (was included with my Konica/Minolta camera)

* Epson Easy Photo Fix (was included with a scanner that I
purchased)

* MicroSoft Office Picture Manager (came with the PC I recently
purchased)

* Windows Photo Gallery (came with the PC I recently purchased)

Are any of you Macintosh users?

Often when you purchase a digital camera or a photo printer the manufacturer
includes software to help organize and perform edits on your pictures (see
ArcSoft above). Sometimes these freebes aren't very useful. Other times
they are really pretty cool. I personally know someone who started using
PhotoStudio years ago when she got it for free and is quite happy with it.

The reason I'm asking is so that we can try to figure out how to perform the
same operations in each software package that the group uses.

For instance, these packages all permit cropping the image, but they won't
all do it the same way. Click on the link below to see an example of a
picture after and before cropping.

I'm also posting this email on the blog. If easy for you, I would like you
to make your reply as a comment on the Blog. But it's absolutely no problem
if you would rather not.
