You can purchase Photoshop Elements - I'd try Best Buy in The Villages. It is in the $100 range, perhaps a bit less. You do not have to buy Photoshop - it is several hundred dollars and designed for pro use. Photoshop Elements will do the same things but a bit less in the way of features and sold by the same company. There is another recent thread on here which also speaks of a free program called GIMP. It can be downloaded for free. Based on that thread I downloaded it and it looks fairly robust, but I may be a bit more experienced than the average bear and Photoshop Elements has a lot of tutorials, support and the like for the beginner or novice. Probably a lot easier to learn and be able to rely on, IMHO. Might add that TV LLC has some Photoshop Elements classes comin up in future weeks too.
