I am new at all this and would like to know what programs everyone uses to touch up their photos. What would you recommend? I currently use pictureit 2000 from microsoft and would like go more advanced with my photo touch ups. :)

I use Photoshop 6 or Paint Shop Pro 7. PSP7 is the far cheaper of the two.

I recommend Photoshop Elements. It has a fantastic red-eye tool and it stitches beautiful panoramas.

Another option is to find a used (cheap) copy of Photoshop 4 or 5.

mainly use Paint Shop Pro7 - cheaper and more user friendly than Adobe PhotoShop.

I am a die-hard Photoshop addict, but then again I do more than just photo manipulation with it.

I use both...Photo Shop 6 and PSP...I also do more than touchup stuff for photography:)

Does anyone use Kodak Pro?

I mainly use Corel Photopaint 9, because I think the user-interface it's much easier to cope with then Adobe's Photoshop.

I'm surprised that no-one here uses Ulead's PhotoImpact, a program which I find to be very intuitive and flexible. Mind you, I'm still using an ancient SE version I got a good few years back, since it does everything I want it to...

I have Photoshop and PaintShopPro. 90% of the time I get stuff done much quicker and simpler with PSP. Its a fantastic program well worth the price, I wouldnt be using Photoshop if my previous job didn't provide it for me.

Thank you all, I think I will look a little closer at PSP and photo shop

I find PSP a much more user friendly program, although I do think Photoshop is far superior. But it has taken about £75 worth of books for me to learn it properly!! Adobe Photoshop for Photographers is a fantastic book on the program... although like I said, PSP is far easier to use, if you're just going to learn it yourself...

I've got that version too and I love. The thumbnail browser is a sweet feature ;)

I should have probably been more specific before... I use Photoshop for image editing, but I use ACDSee for image management, like going through all my pictures when I get home and throwing away 95% of them. I also use ACDSee to rotate all my images to the proper orientation, it has a nifty lossless jpg rotate tool.

Thanks for the rotation tip - I have been saving the original jpg as a tiff and only doing the final jpg save when all the modifications have been completed thus avoiding any loss.

For those of you that are students or work for a school, don't forget about the all famous educational discount ... it makes most any program very affordable!
