Easy photo editing Software?????

[cmputrskillme]

Hey guys!

I'd like to purchase a program to edit photos for funny myspace pics.......

You know, like taking the face of some celebrity and putting it on a fat hairy body or.......adding funny text to a picture....or making a guy look like a girl with pink hair.....etc.

I need it to be easy to use like Broderbund Print Shop (you know, so easy a five year old can use it!) I don't want it to be a big huge bloated program that is expensive and will take me a two week class to learn how to use!

Looking for your suggestions!

Thanks!
Sharon

... and there are lots of user-created plugins to give any pic that special warped something.

I don't know. Although this is a big 'photoshopish' application, I'd recommend GIMP. It's free to boot :)

Thanks for the suggestions.......I've downloaded the "getpaint" and was able to get some text on a picture. I've downloaded Gimp and am totally clueless as to how to get a set of "a$$cheeks" to shake or a set of "boobs" to bounce or making someone wave......I'm also not sure how to remove a face and put another in or paint hair or put a black eye on someone.

I'm sure it's because I don't even understand what half of these features are called to even choose it?????

I'm an idiot.........is there advice on a particular setting or feature that makes those things happen? Perhaps an ebook or page that I can read to learn how to do these things?

My blond roots don't run that deep........;)

Thanks EFC.......though these tutorials are very informative, I think this stuff is WAY over my head.

Ok, whoever has a paypal account and wants donations, I have a few pics for you to manipulate for me.....LOL
