Photoshop CS5 Posted by: Elizabeth Hardley 18 Jan 2011 4:38pm

I hardly think Photoshop Elements is the Industry Standard. The more expensive and sophisticated Photoshop CS5 would be used by professionals and many keen amateurs.This beats all other programs by a long way.

It's supported on Linux too. That's waht it's made for.

Is a free downloadable program that covers all of your checklists, works well, and is not too complicated.
I have just used it to reserrect a 20year old 6x4 That was in terrible condition after being pinned to the lounge wall. Flyblown, faded with parts of the image flaked off. The owner was delighted with the enlarged result.

also a number of people I know rate paint.net as a very good free program.

A number of people I know are now using Adobe Lightroom and are very happy with it. Unfortunately it is not included in these comparisons.
