Hi folks,

I need a graphics editing program that can:

1. Add borders
2. Resize both image and canvas
3. Correct photos, ideally with some automated system
4. Crop images

I've been using PaintShopPro XI, but it has an awful bug related to trying cache images in the My Pictures directory.

Anything else out there?

Don't know how fancy of a border you want but I use Irfanview for a great deal of things. Even when I'm using Photoshop, I often find myself using Irfan on the same images.

To make frames I just enlarge the canvas using the colors I want.

It's free so it will only cost you a bit of time to give it a try.
