After recently finding this application (thank you Moneysavingexpert.com) I have found that it looks like it will be able to satisfy all my needs. The only real head scratcher I have found so far though is that when I went to File then Acquire (image) the Scanner or Camera selection was not available for me to use. What do I need to do to connect my scanner and camera to to Paint.NET? Previous programs I have used in the past seemed to do this automatically. My system at present has existing programs that work with images such as picture it and Photo Express.
