For most bloggers, photographers and designers, Adobe Photoshop remains the number one choice for image manipulation and digital photo editing.

I have been using Photoshop myself for most of the image editing stuff but in some cases its just impossible to live with it. Issues such as high RAM usage, long loading times and complexity of tools make Photoshop unbearable.

Today! what I have for you is probably one of the best free image editors for Windows. It launches instantly, uses a very negligible amount of RAM and provides easy yet powerful image editing tools. Its Paint.NET.

Paint.NET features an intuitive and innovative user interface with support for layers, unlimited undo, special effects, and a wide variety of useful and powerful tools.

It is Free, it is powerful and above all it is supported by an active online community and plugins.

It is only 2MB and features the same power and ability of other famous image editing tools like Adobe Photoshop, Corel Draw and GIMP.
