[AccessD] Paint.net

Yeah, in my experience MS Paint has to be the worst graphics tool I have ever had the mispleasure to (try) and use.  It has never produce good results for me and always resulted in loss of quality.

Irfanview on the other had is pretty solid and I use it to make icons etc.  That said, I don't have the need to make Icons that often so a dedicated tool hasn't been on my radar.

Cheers
Darryl

I don't know about paint.net, but with any decent image editor it is very easy to do.

Even Irfanview allows you to easily manipulate the contrast, birghtness, saturation, gamma 
correction etc of an image.   In fact that is probably the simplest tool you will find to do the 
job.
