Hi, I'm looking for software beyond the basic PictureIt I've used, and my previous use of PhotoDeluxe. I don't want to spend the dollars on Photoshop. I'd appreciate your expert opinions

I'm looking for software that will manage colour balance and colour adjustment (ie underexposed grey-day to the golden glow etc.) on 4 or 5 megapixel images, with good advanced gamma/brightness etc control and with good image filing/library routines. I like and use Irfanview but it won't handle the colour filter/advanced gamma etc.

What's the view on the best option? I'm attracted to Photoimpact, and maybe PS Elements. Is there any clear No 2 behind PS7?
