I'd also recommend PhotoImpact and add that the interface whilst it might 
look a little daunting to begin with, once you get a handle on where 
everything is, it's great because it doesn't clutter up your workspace like 
some other programs, giving you plenty of room to work.

There's a swag of tutorials and resources available here:

...and if you're so inclined, there's also a wonderful group of helpful 
people available on Stephanie Baker-Thomas's Bulletin Board who are more 
than happy to offer assistance to newbies. You can find that here:

Good luck.....
