:::psstkazaaphotoshopkazaapsst::: hint, hint!
<--has Photoshop 7 (also have all previous versions - 4.0, 5.5, and 6 - never even bought any of those softwares - started with 5.5 myself, fiancee started with 4.0 thanks to her ex-boyfriend that knew computer networking.) PS7 is the thing to do when you want to tweak the planes.
Oh yeah, get rid of Paint. THAT sucks.
By the way, please disregard the last post I made - I didn't want Gimp in the first place and I don't care about where to get it from this forum.
Instructions? Try
