Try the Gimp


Try the gimp,The GNU Image Manipulation Program, the GIMP, is ideal for


amateur photographers, web designers, and many other people who want to


create and edit digital images. It is a very powerful application, with


features including: channels, layers and masks; colour operations such


as levels, curves and threshhold; advanced selection operations using


intelligent scissors and selection channels; and much more.


GIMP is free software, which means it can be freely distributed and


modified. This makes it well suited to be included on cover disks of


magazines dedicated to digital photography or image editing, or to be


included with digital cameras, scanners, printers etc. As free


software, its capabilities are ultimately limited only by the


collective imagination of the community of free software contributors.

Reply:for sure! use photoshop!
Reply:yes you can if you have the expensive software that offers that feature. but using the usual software out there just to edit upside down and color contrasts, etc. it won't work. you have to use one or the other.
