Got $400 USD laying around?
They're professional grade editors, that's why they cost so much

aaww, darn, i think i'll just download the free one

Pictures from paint are accepted, its the size of the pic that matters. You could also do "save as" and choose jpg 
The most common used program is Adobe Photoshop, however this program is very expensive.
A few free ones are:
IrfanView: http://www.irfanview.com/ (as Leif already said)
GIMP: http://www.gimp.org/

what sunshine is saying is you go File then click Save as then enter your file name and click the drop down box and choose jpg then hit save

drop down box??
RE: picture tools by Sunshine on 01-07-2005 at 04:35 PM
Yes, underneath where you fill in the filename there's a drop down box Click the arrow on the left of that field.
