Bill,

I use my Swiss army knife of a graphics program, The GIMP (GNU Image Manipulation Program) for Windows XP. This also happens to be the only one that I can afford... ( ). It is free and open-source.

From the GIMP home page:
"GIMP is the GNU Image Manipulation Program. It is a freely distributed piece of software for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition and image authoring. It works on many operating systems, in many languages."
You can download the current version (2.6.6) here.
