Paint doesn't cut it, GIMP is too user-antagonistic and I don't have a lot of time to sit and learn it.

I need a free graphics editing program to crop, scale, drop and drag graphics (in pixels and in inches/millimeters) in a very short time.

So ... somewhere between Paint and GIMP.

Any recommendations? Thanks!
 
Paint.Net is awesome in my opinion, I use it for all my graphics needs. It sits somewhere between MSPaint and Photoshop. Its got layers and effects etc but is also simple as and pretty powerful.

...and its free! Check it out you wont be disappointed.

You know, when I saw the topic title my mind instantly went to Gimp! guess only us Linux nerds love it huh.
 
Gimp is not user friendly... OK, maybe it is for real graphic artist types. It's powerful... but it's a challenge to figure out sometimes.

You might be able to do what you want with OpenOffice's equivalent of PowerPoint or Publisher. Their software is usually pretty user-friendly.
 
Thanks, all. I will be trying Paint.net and will let you know how it turns out.
