    It needs to at minimum crop, resize, compress and optimize the image and be capable of viewing full size. Thanks!

    If you have money to spend, get a Photoshop.

    If not, even freeware programs like GIMP or Paint.Net will get the job done.

    I agree, if you have quite a big of cash to spare, then get Photoshop, you'll love the amazing things it can do with a few clicks. If not then you'd be able to do all that with GIMP or Paint.Net ;)

    Photoshop is the best in my opinion but for what you need to do most image editing programs should do the trick :)

    Photoshop is the best graphic software I think. If you like the free one, use GIMP

    I'm going to agree with the majority here. I first learnt on GIMP (which is free). Its really great and there is lots of plug-ins you can get for it. You can even make animated images on it:

    http://www.gimp.org/downloads/

    (apologies...I cant use live links yet)

    However, if you want the best and latest, I would go Photoshop CS4. It is quite expensive (I think over $800 :rolleyes:).

    Yes, Photoshop is the best image software.. if you can afford paying $$$, then buy it.

    I only use Paint.Net for my simple photo editing tasks. =)

    paint.net is free and so is gimp, I have photoshop, paint.net is basically a user-friendly version of photoshop that still has the feel of paint.
