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

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.

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.

) of money
