Hard to come up with stuff fitting the theme. I made a Green Book one, but I think it may be territory.

what does everyone use to edit images like this? is it still photoshop? I always found it so hard to use. What is the easiest for noobs?

I used to be a purely Photoshop man, but now I do almost all my stuff for the forums with free apps on my phone. Unfortunately no one app seems to satisfactorily cover everything.

Autodesk Sketchbook - I use this one for most of the actual cutting up and arranging of elements. It has good tools for working in layers and painting, and let's you do some helpful stuff with layers like changing blend modes and tweaking the color levels and saturation/hue/darkness.

It's main deficits are that you can't really do anything beyond that, like adjust contrast or black levels or any of that. It also has terrible text tools.

For all other tweaking and for creating good text I use Photo Editor from MG Soft Inc. This one has a lot of tools but no real layers support so everything has to be burned into the image once you're done and can't be tweaked later. One great thing though is you can load custom fonts!

Not a perfect workflow, but it works! And now I can make stupid pictures in bed.

I just want to be able to blend two images together easily so I can put an actuals pig face looking back on the big pig balls photo, featuring Mr Yu. So, an easy way to cut out a shape from one image, paste it on another, and then blend it together. I've tried GIMP and it's such trash, I have no idea how to use it, and photoshop seems too complicated. Many years ago the best I used was some PNG editor I can't remember the name. So Autodesk Sketchbook is good for this?

I don't know if you'll find it easy or not but sketchbook is very capable of doing that, it also doesn't have a huge amount of functionality beyond that so it's a bit less cluttered and cumbersome than something like gimp.

In the gallery view you'd press the plus button and then press "new from image" and select the bottom image you want to use. Then in the editing area at the top of the screen you'd click the button with a ruler and protractor on it and hit import image and select your picture to go on top, then it will let you resize it and move it around. After that you can select an eraser and remove the extra bits.

Seconding (thirding?) Autodesk Sketchbook and also recommending SuperimposeX if you want to use apps. It’s great for making forums “photoshops” It gives you layers, blending options, lots of color adjustment options, warping, and effects. The drawback is there aren’t as many drawing and sketching options as Sketchbook which is more suited for that kind of thing.
