for me, who doesn't have an ounce of creativity in his body photoshop was a difficult learning experience, but now that i know it any retouching i have to do (dust often gets on negs when they get scanned) is so much better than it was before.

trey-PM sent re photoshop.  certainly the best photo editing software, but may be a bit steep of a learning curve given the number of features.  if you just want basic stuff, Irfanview is pretty good shareware.  http://www.irfanview.com/

oh yeah, forgot, Trey, didn't your camera come with photoshop elements?  it's a dumbed down version but has all the basic photo editing stuf that you are probably going to need.  it probably has about 70% of the features that photoshop CS has.  if all you want to do is add some contrast, adjust color a little bit, sharpen and crop, the elements is likely all that you will need.

wife didn't know it was necessary and tossed it, I think, or misplaced it
