Photo editing programs

[Curt Firestone]

In today's internet world, there are many different photo editing programs.  Photoshop has become the common name for all of them.  How do they differ?  What are their strengths? weaknesses?  Some cost more; some are free?  Some have more bells and whistles and some are bare bones.

While photo editing program do you use?  

Would you enjoy presenting your program to club members at a regular meeting?

Based on conversations at coffee and locales, we thought that a series of presentations whould be enlightening.

Please do not be shy!!  We want to network and share.  Quoting Margaret Benmore, "Lets play".
