I have been looking for a "free" paint program that will better reduce gigantic digital images down to a "postable" size and somewhat maintain the image quality.
Paint.Net works pretty good, it incorporates layers (ala Photoshop), and has some interesting effects that I have not seen before...
Regular Image...

RELIEF...make the flames look 3D...

MIRROR TILE...

PENCIL SKETCH...

INVERSION...

Lots of others, EMBOSS, PIXELATE, OUTLINE, the usuals... All the EFFECTS are fully adjustable...
Only problem...no batch mode, so it takes FOREVER to process through a few hundred digitals...

Here's a file that originally was 6 megs, some 3000 x 2000 pixels in dimension.
Paint Shop Pro reduction...

Paint.Net reduction...

Quite an improvement, a noticeable difference on the Eliminator Website, and FREE...!! Â 
Any other image tools out there to recommend...??
