Both free.

For quick/simple edits. Paint.NET

Edit: Removed The Gimp.

XnView might be what your looking for if not Paint.NET.

 

lol i have used both of them but i cant get some pictures to edit like i need with either

 

My brother uses Gimp to replace backgrounds and cut items from one picture to put them in another.

Here are some video tutorials. #16 seems to be what you want.

so that what im looking for

 

I know people have said Gimp but there is a version a bit more like Photoshop call Gimpshop.
The foreground selection tool may help?

Have you tried FastStone Image Viewer - Powerful and Intuitive Photo Viewer, Editor and Batch Converter ). It is amazing what you can do with it - even more function (and for free).
