Which image editor should you choose?

Question

Image processing

I used to use Microsoft Picture Manager, but after installing Office 2013 I didn’t find it there. Can you tell me an analogue to crop / make brighter / darker and save in scale or in another format? PaintNET, yes, but if you reduce the size there, it turns out not to scale because of my crooked eyes.

Answer 1

Nomacs is a good choice

Answer 2

FastStone
Lightweight preview, limited editing (caption, selection, brightness/gamma/size), batch processing, and more.
