That free version of Paintshop X (see http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=paint+shop+pro+x+free+lexar )
Also PAINT.NET is worth noting.

Guys, I was wondering if anybody could help me here. Is there a free software you can use to merge several pics (digital camera mainly)into one pic? Like if you want to make a pic consisting of say five different-size pics of your wedding, first pregnancy, first baby -- you know? I Googled this and found something called Picture Merger or Picture Merge Genius I think, but the problem is it ruins the resolution of the pic if you try to decrease its size, whereby the faces go all flat and such.
Much obliged for anyone who could help me with this. Have a great day!
