Any windows (vista) add-ons to add any basic photo editing?

Cropping in shapes (not just squares)

Framing

Sort of features you find on average mobile phone really

If you want more than the very basic photo editing found in Windows Photo
Gallery, you'll need to go to a third-party program. Some suggestions, all
free:

Picasa from Google
http://picasa.google.com/

PhotoFiltre

PhotoScape

The GIMP

How about a free download?

Review, and download:

More powerful, and still free, is The Gimp:

Good luck

Jethro-

Are you asking about Windows Live Photo Gallery or Vista itself? You are in
the WLPG forum.

IrfanView does not have non-rectangular cropping shapes.

You do not actually have to install anything, as there are web based
applications for basic photo editing now.

eg. Photoshop Express
