Freeware software: What do you use?

I use Picasa, Poladroid and 3D freeware. Feel free to share what you use, what it does and a link. Thanks!

feel free to follow the directions in your own thread maybe?

I use brushes that I find on Deviant

I use quite a few:

• Irfanview - viewer, batch processor (www.irfanview.com)
  
• RAW Therapee - RAW Converter (www.rawtherapee.com)
  
• ShiftN - Corrects converging verticals automagically (http://www.marcus-hebel.de/foto/links.ht​ml)
  
• GIMP - Photoshop alternative (www.gimp.org)
  
• Noiseware Community Edition - noise reduction (www.imagenomic.com)
  
• Picturenaut - HDR (www.hdrlabs.com/pictur​enaut/)

Well, the username matches the post!

Thanks for the tip of Deviant, tho. I don't go there often but I have been looking for brushes that produce an effect like a deepsea sponge "blotched" onto a canvas. I'll look there.

At my office I use Picassa only for searching and viewing my collection of real estate photos.

OpenOffice - It's like office, but free (http://www.openoffice.​org/)

Anybody recommend a good FTP client? (free, of course)

Geotagging (windows only, I think for these):

EasyGps - For getting Tracks off GPS.

Geosetter - Syncing those tracks to a folder of images; and embedding lat/long + location names into metadata... even embeds to RAW files.

Deviant has great brushes and a huge amount. I like to use the brushes for clouds.

Obsidian Dawn also has a great section of free brushes.

PanosFX has some decent actions and some are free.

CoffeeTeaPhotography has actions I use very frequently.

and I also use Picassa as well
