Hi and welcome! Irfanview is a great freeware and it's simple to use. I use it to resize, color enhancement, titles, borders and slide shows. I find it difficult to predict what will be liked, so I post images that I like. Everyone here has been very kind and helpful, I'm sure that you will find a lot of people who can help with what ever you need to know. Also go to the free stuff section here and look for the fractal section. There are several starter flames there that is a big help to get started. Good luck, Patti (AAA aka Apophysis Art Addict)
