It sounds like GIMP is worth a try ........ but I can't open it after downloading it. I feel like so many of the first time users of OOo. I have received a 19,714kb file (which, by the way, seems too small?) for the file: <2.2.8.tar.gz> but it is an unknown file to my XP system. Also, the information on the GIMP homepage is for you folks who speak computer. I don't understand a bit of it. Does anyone know what I might do here to install this file?
