A Free Image Editing Program That Lets You Rotate?

[RoboJoe32]

I wanted to find a free image editing application that lets you do things like stretch/skew/exact rotate/blur/smudge/chrome (not the 90 degree styled rotation but true rotation) but something simple.

Anyone know of anything like this?

The GIMP?

Well, if you want something simple Irfanview can rotate/stretch/skew/blur and is a lot less hassle (imo) than the Gimp.

true but the GIMP is about a zillion times more powerful than irfanview. Its almost as good as photoshop in fact.

Almost as good? You mean as good, if not better.

I've become more proficent in the gimp in a week then years of photoshop. It's absolutly free, it has a hilarious name thats easy to explain to tutors at college.
I love my gimp.

The GIMP is a piece of genius for free...!

never really liked the gimp
besides, photoshop CAN BE free

mmmm....it certainly can what a paradox

heh.

Still, I wouldn't say the gimp is better overall, its certainly easier to pick up though. Photoshop is more powerful, but with that extra power comes a lot more complexity. The gimp strips this complexity away but to the detriment of some things (don't ask what, I haven't used the gimp in about a year but I do remeber I much preferred photoshop)
