Zoner 14, the free version, works well for me
I do have a (pre-subscription) copy of Adobe Creative Suite, therefore including Photoshop. But, for routine image editing (like editing photographs), I also have, and prefer to use, the free version of Zoner 14, For that role, I find it to be well-featured, friendlier than Photoshop, and rock-stable running on Windows 7. Does anyone else use this?
