Dear
World, Paint.Net
is a free piece of image and photo manipulation software. 
Features:
unlimited undo, special effects filters, cropping, paint fill, brightness and
contrast, layers, colour correction and many others. NB This photo editing software
has many of the same features as Paintshop Pro and Photoshop but it is free :) Best
Feature - Paint.net has a tool that allows graphics to be optimised for your
blog or Internet page. Tips
and Tricks: -
Use the procedures on my Blogging Site
to take screen dumps and optimise photos for your blog or Internet page. -
Take digital photographs of children's artworks - turn off the flash and place
it in direct window light.
-
Use some online art sites like www.jacksonpollock.org
then take a screen dmp of the page and use Paint.Net
to get it ready for your blog.
-
try to get the students to use Paint.net if different ways ie - to manipulate
an artwork, to enhance a photograph or to indulge in the cliche use of filters
