3. GIMP :
Personally I haven't used GIMP but found many positive review about it over internet. GIMP has got full support for layers and masks, a good range of sophisticated brush controls and even a rough content-aware fill via unofficial plugins like this. There's another version of GIMP called GIMPshop that meant for professional uses and supports all the GIMP functionality with a Photoshop-imitation layout. DOWNLOAD
4. Paint.net (available only for windows) :
Paint.net is slightly less powerful when it is compared GIMP. It's interface is quite intuitive and innovative. Paint.net provides lot of tools including supports for layers, unlimited undo, special effects. Thier growing online community also provides plugins and tutorials. DOWNLOAD
5. Inkspace
Inkspace is free powerful designer's tool. It is popular for using vector graphics rather than bitmaps as native format. DOWNLOAD
