Which is the best photo-editing software for blending images and how to write text over the images?

Adobe Photoshop Creative Suite and the Coral Draw are the best photo editing software available now in the market. You can do a lot to your photos with these two software.

Adobe Photoshop is perhaps the best photo editing software available. You can do anything from basic to professional image editing using this software. If you want to do just some basic editing, Google's Picasa will be the best option as it has a lot of editing options and is very easy to use and of course, it's free of cost.

Dear friend,
I think the best photo editing software is Adobe Photoshop. You can easily install it in your laptop or personal computer. Let me describe you Adobe Photoshop CS3.
Adobe Photoshop CS3
Photoshop is an most important tool to photographers, when I found more information about the coming Adobe Photoshop CS3, I was very excited. Photoshop CS3's interface is said to closely resemble the look and feel of Adobe After Effects 7, with brightness and adjustment for the overall interface itself. Palettes can be moved, minimized, customized down to a single icon with easily even that familiar two-column toolbar can be converted into a narrower single column bar, if desired.

Next new feature improving both workflow and raw performance is Live
Filters, which effectively brings the dynamic editing features of Layer Styles to Filters. The pixel radius of a Gaussian Blur, for example, can be adjusted long after it's applied with just a single mouse click. Sources report substantial performance improvements to the filters themselves, as well, and have speculated that Photoshop may now be tapping the GPU of the video card to help the CPU crunch filters. So, I suggest you to use adobe Photoshop for better results.

The Adobe Photo Shop and Corel Draw are no doubt are two of the best image editors in the world. However, you should go for them only if you have enough time to learn the intricacies of photo editing and have finance to buy original software. They are costly and are not free to download.
