Previously I have been told about the GIMP. GIMP is a freeware application, open source and multi-platform (available for linux, mac and windows). Gimp also is equipped with features that vary. Plug-ins, filters and brushes can also easily be found on the internet. I admit there are still many people who are not familiar with this, for users of Photoshop would be difficult to use the GIMP because different ways of use.
By default gimp does not provide a plugin layer styles such as drop shadow, inner glow, outer glow and so forth. Can be sure photoshop users must often use this feature. But take it easy, you can install in gimp layer styles by adding a plugin called layerfx.py. 

First, download layerfx.py in http://registry.gimp.org/files/layerfx.py
layerfx.py file copy to / home/namauser/.gimp-2.6/plug-ins /
X for layerfx give permission to run, how, enter the terminal and type sudo chmod + x / home / name user/.gimp-2.6/plugins/layerfx.py.
Restart GIMP. You can make use of layer effects through Layer → Layer Effects menu. Now you can use the layer effects in the GIMP.
