May I suggest ImageMagik?  It is on your disks, has lots of
features (resize, crop, sharpen, color balance, etc) and has a
shallow learning curve.  The only thing I don't like about it is
saving images is somewhat clunky.

Members have been talking about Gwenview.  May be what you need.

Yes - Anne recommends it, but suggests a newer version.  Unfortuntaely 
the info is in my mandrake messages which I can't get to at present. 
There is a website though I think.

  There's always the Gimp, but for something easier try KolourPaint.
 
 Gimp usage is not very inuitive, therefore some hints:
 
 Use the cut tool, either by selecting it in the main window (the knife
 icon) or by just typing Sift-C. Arrange the selected area as you need.
 Then click within the selected area to do the cut. Save the image, or
 better save as

Thanks to all for your help.

If you go for GwenView, read the TWiki page first - you need the latest 
version of some packages.
