Windows Starter Package: Photo & Photo Editing

In the era of the digital camera, users manage and edit large photo collections on their Windows PCs. For this task, you are well-equipped with the following free tools from the “Photo and Image Processing” section.


FastStone Image Viewer: Multitalent for photos


The freeware FastStone Image Viewer is a fast image viewer that can handle all popular formats and even display many RAW images and .PSD files from Photoshop. For this purpose, the free tool, which can be quickly accessed via keyboard shortcuts, offers the possibility to perform simple image processing such as color corrections or the insertion of text and forms. Batch processing, conversion and renaming is also supported. Shortcut: In the Preferences tab of the General tab, select "Start a scheduled image in" on "Window View" to not automatically open images in full-screen mode.


Picasa: Photo flood under control


Growing the number of digital photos is not an easy task. The Picasa free-of-charge freeware service is very useful. In a vertical timeline, you keep track of all your photos, create albums, and correct images. All of the edits are initially made virtually - so their original photos remain unaffected. You can use the "Export" function to share the edited images.


Gimp: Free alternative to Photoshop


Unfortunately Google has discontinued the development to Picasa. The software can still be used. Otherwise, let's take a look at these 5 Picasa alternatives.


Gimp is a free alternative to the industry standard Adobe Photoshop for deeper image processing and photo montage. The free tool has many familiar Photoshop features, but it takes some time to work. Fortunately, there are numerous tutorials that help to master the program.
