The "all out" version of Photoshop is nice, but it's pricey and has a lot of features most home users don't really need and most likely won't use. A better version for home use is "PhotoShop Elements" - it'll fix the things most home users need fixed and it's less expensive. But you'll still have a "learning curve" since it has a lot of features
I personally like "Photo Suite" that came bundeld with a digital camera I bought a few years ago.
Also, check the CD that probably came with your camera. Most manufacturers bundle some photo enhancement software on the CD that has the camera drivers. You might as well give it a try, it may have the features you want.
I personally dislike Kodak's Easy Share software. It produced a lot of conflicts with my (non-Kodak) cameras, webcam, and scanner, to the point where I just un-installed it.

If you want to explore the world of Adobe Photoshop - the GOld Standard - without spending the big money for the full product, get Photoshop Elements 5.0. It is a tremendously powerful program and it only sells for $99.00. You can get it at http://www.adobe.com or any of the usual places you buy software.
You can use it practically right out of the box with the "Quick Fix" option and then you can advance into the full program, learning TONS about the Photoshop world as you go. Frankly, I think neither you nor I would ever explore the full capabilities of Photoshop Elements 5.0. If you ever DO think you are ready for more, you will already know much of what you will need to know about "real" Photoshop. They'll undoubtedly have a new and improved version by then. Since Nikon just came out with a totally new image editting package, Adobe will have to step up to the plate.
You will find Photoshop Elements 4.0 at closeout for about $40 at several retail outlets as well as on eBay and it's a great program, too.

PhotoShop. Or, if you want a freebie, Picture Window Pro 3.5 (google serials and cracks for the code to make it full-version). Or, you can still get the demo of Paint Shop Pro (supposed to be thirty day trial, but it'll keep going). I use all three.

One of the best (and not to mention free) programs that I have come across is Irfanview which supports a wide variety of formats as well as countless other features.

Jasc paint shop pro or adobe photo shop are 2 exellent programs that can do almost anything with a photo. With jasc I have removed powerlines from pictures and restored pictures that were damaged in flooding. Color corection and getting pictures brighter or darker is also a snap with both.

Get PhotoShop 7. Even though I only use it for doing lightsaber effects, I find it very useful.
By the way if you get Photoshop, learn how to do the lightsaber effect at:
