I tried Picasa but found it very confusing, I've not used Gimp. Fast Stone for me is a very good choice for 'first time' photo editing, making slideshows, resizing and organising your photos.
I suppose the only way is to try them and see which suits you best and since they're free you have nothing to lose and only experience to gain.
Hi does Fast Stone automatically correct pictures etc?I tried Picasa but found it very confusing, I've not used Gimp. Fast Stone for me is a very good choice for 'first time' photo editing, making slideshows, resizing and organising your photos.

Also, if you like your existing case, a local PC shop could probably rebuild it with new innards for a reasonable amount - depending on the spec that you want.

It is daunting to start with, but then so is photoshop. With a few tutorials or a good book it is not so bad and certainly a great package for free.
Thanks, can Gimp automatically fix photo's for you etc. Where can I download it please?It is daunting to start with, but then so is photoshop. With a few tutorials or a good book it is not so bad and certainly a great package for free.

Never heard of ReadyBoost AuraTodd wrote:
Hi guys sorry to be a pain in the !"£$% asking all these stupid questions.
I have 1.93 of ram with two memory slots. Am intending to get a photo suit like Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom next year. Will 8Gb ave to be added, or is the ram I have at the moment OK?
About the 32 bit, will I get more out of 64 bit?
2Gb of ram on a 32-bit should be fine. Provided you are not also running a computer program that controls unmanned deep-space orbiters, or anything else that's memory-intensive in tandem with PS/PSE, or Lightroom it should be okay. You may occasionally find that Adobe may momentarily "freeze", but that usually only occurs when the program needs to use up all the ram. Did you know that you can also use a usb stick as additional ram? Microsoft calls this READYBOOST - here's the link.Hi guys sorry to be a pain in the !"£$% asking all these stupid questions.

I have just switched from XP after many years to Windows 7 and find it excellent for running Photoshop and Lightroom I have 8gb Ram on Dell Inspiron 560 and use it as home PC and playing with photographs, no gaming.
