Hey guys I was wondering if you guy's would have any good recommendations for a good photo management software. My wife has all these photo's and I want to download her something that she can do stuff with the photo's. Thanks.

Picasa2: its free!

Or photoshop elements 6.0 if your just getting into it.

photoshop is the best program but a little bit "heavy" for your pc's memory
But is very good choice
The easiest way is "Paint" (which it's come with windows) but there you can do just the basics

I agree I really like it. Also, if you use gmail it intigrates into an online web album very well. The online version of picasa is very good.

Adobe

I am sure there is a 30-day trial.

I've seen it for 55 bucks just recently. But it might be overkill. If, all you want to do is crop and color correct I am sure Picasa is a good choice.

Yeah I agree, the learning curve is a bit high.

But Elements is a more water down version then the full package. and its only 99 bucks USD. You might see it cheaper too.

can't you find it free?
