Which photo software?
« on: 14 May 2012, 18:26 »
Currently using Adobe Lightroom ( It cost me nowt if you know what I mean  :wink: ) but I find it extremely frustrating and complex in places!

I have heard good reviews about GIMP which is free.

What are you guys using?

Cheers

the GIMP is your best legitamte free option, if you happy using a "free" version then Photoshop however if you've finding LR confusing then you'll probably struggle with either.  photoshop elements if probably your best bet for simplicity.

Personally I mainly use photoshop for proper photo edits and lightroom for snapshots.
