free Windows graphics editor for me?
I'd have to research it myself, as my free tools are terribly out of
date, and I've been a licensed PaintShop Pro user for about 12 years,
so haven't needed to find new tools.
Off the top of my head, there's the Gimp, but that's a lame attempt
to replace Photoshop, and has hideous user interface. I'd never use
it for real work.
I think David Bailey mentioned a free graphics editor. Perhaps others
could chime in, but if you're not satisfied with that, I'm willing to
put my money where my mouth is and spend some time researching it.
Actually I hadn't mentioned one, but Artweaver is free and
is much more capable than MSPaint. It also includes the
ability to select the compression to be used (including
"none") on TIF files.
It can be downloaded at:

It's more powerful than MSPaint so it'll take a short while
to get used to all the adjustable parameters but it seems
easy enough to figure out and the price is terrific.
