Digital Photos: Basic image editing with Paint.NET

Paint.NET is the best full-featured yet lightweight image editor for Windows, and weblog CyberNet introduces a few of its most basic features. Most of the features the post highlights can be found in nearly all image editors (like red-eye correction and auto-level), but Paint.NET's ease of use, speed, and more advanced feature set might be just what you're looking for. If you do mostly basic image editing and you'd like to move into more advanced territory but don't need the power of Photoshop or GIMP, Paint.NET is well worth trying out. If you're already a regular Paint.NET user, let us know a few of your favorite features in the comments.
