?Freeware Image editor with Layers?

[xackley]

I downloaded PC Image editor
http://www.download.com/PC-Image-Editor/3000-2192-10532704.html?part=dl-PCImageEd&subj=uo&tag=button

with does good with saturation, hue and stuff, but for building these things, have the ability to move layers would be real useful.

Anyone know a good complete package that is a give away.

Paint.net 3.08 (easier than GImp, but Gimp is very good)

Thanks all
Paint.net appears to be at the right level for what I am trying to do.

gimp is great, but for windows users it might be strange to handle.
there's no "main window", the menus behave in strange manners...
it's still a very powerful tool, and to make windows users feel more familiar using gimp, a guy transformed it to what he calls "gimpshop", that is gimp, behaving and looking more like other windows programs.
just go google for gimpshop. :)

Thanks for that tip! Cause I was one of those dumbo's who couldn't get grips on Gimp's window views whereas the features impressed me.
