I'm interested in the BEST Picture editing software. Editing personal pictures for focus, red-eye, etc. effects. Easy and effective software, without making a career out of it.
Thanks...

Heck, you can make a career out of checking out the different software packages.

For photo editing, I would take a look at the following:

Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0
U-Lead Photo Impact
Arcsoft Photo Studio

Each has it's specific strong points.

I find Arcsoft the easist for pixel by pixel editing.

Adobe Photoshop Elements is the easiest to use for 'standard' tasks.
Also, for photo size and resolution adjustments.
You also have more printing options.
At first blush, I do like Adobe Photo Deluxe 4 a little better than Photoshop Elements that replaced it.

U-Lead does a little bit better job of complex editing and odd shape selections.

Some peers like Paint Shop Pro from Jasc.
I have not worked with the full version, so I can't give you true impressions.
