Help:-Photo-Editing-Program-Question
I recently got a new computer and now I forget what photo editing software I used to create images like this one.
Can anybody help an old Coingeezer out?

For Windows I use Paint.net.

For Linux I use Gimp.

For quick stuff I use an old Paintshop Pro I've had for 15 years. Doesn't have a lot of features but for quick crops and simple editing it's really easy to use.
For the tough jobs I use Adobe Photoshop C5. Photoshop does everything but it takes forever to learn all its features (I got C5 for Dummies which really helped a lot).
Photoscape is great for creating those side-by-side coin pictures with the reflection.

I use Google Picasa to edit my pictures, then use Paint to merge to images and fix the file size.

If you look into it, there are numerous photo programs on the market that do all sorts of stuff.
Serif Photo Plus
Photo Shop
Photo Works
Microsoft Picture It
MGI PhotoSuite
Just to name a few on my computer.
