OK, I'm way slow on learning. So, I need a relatively EASY but good photo editing software. Been looking at a few but just have cold feet to make a plunge into something I'm not sure about. Perhaps y'all can help. Has anyone used Topaz AI? Others - please....THX!!!

“ Undecided but in a need of” ....a complete request?
Please state what you want in the title in the future.

Check out Corel Paint Shop Pro, does just about everything, reasonable price, I found it easy to learn, lots of info on the help tab.

This has been beat to death here - if you will go to top header, click on Search, and enter "Easy Photo Software" dozen of threads will pop up, some with 50-60 replies. And remember most software will allow you to download a trial version Free. Better way to see if YOU like it versus other's recommendations on what THEY like.

One of the reasons UHH's search function is so lousy is because people don't create titles that give any information (that was GoofyNewfie's point ).

A lot of photo editing software has a free trial. I've enjoyed PS Elements for several years:

Here's one list of free (probably not up to date):

(edit - I just read Stardust's comments, which were written while I was typing and finding the link I provided. I did the suggested search and many topics do come up, but so do a lot of irrelevant ones)

A FREE app that will give you basic tools you can quickly learn to use is irfanview. It was designed by an engineering student while he was in grad school 20 years ago. He still maintains and updates it. Use it for cropping, sizing, color manipulation and several other commonly used functions.

Find and download it at Irfanview.com.

FYI, that is what I use, relatively easy to start, won't outgrow. They have a Free download to try it.

Cool!
A couple more tips:

You have up to an hour after posting to edit your topic title or any post you make.
Just look for “Edit Topic Title” near the title or “Edit” under what you wrote in any part of the thread.
Those options go away after an hour.

Using the “Quote Reply” option as I have done here, lets us know who’s post you are addressing.
