I'm looking for a good (preferably free) picture manager for pictures
and graphics that I wish to post on the web. I presently use a
combination of Corel Draw 10, Microsoft Paint and Microsoft Office
Picture Manager. These are just adequate but are not really good
tools. Any suggestions?

What kind of "management" are you looking for?

Just editing (cropping mainly), compression, file conversion, adding
transparency. Fairly simple stuff.

What kinds of management are available? I currently use the "managers"
that came with Picassa and my scanner. Apart from the irritating Adobe
Photo Downloader that intervenes every time I connect my mobile phone
to my computer they all seem similar. What features might I look for?

Photoshop is the best, but very expensive.

If not for the transparency issue, I would suggest Xnview or Irfanview.
They are both free, fast and easy to use.

For one free program that will do everything, try The Gimp.

Well, Your CroelDraw10 has PHOTO-Paint, no? PHOTO-Paint has always been
my preference over Photoshop.

If you want a simple convention tool, your cannot paint edit, but crop,
filter, convert and has programmable batch operations then I would
recommend freeware IrfanView

If you save in .gif, Irfanview ask you which color must be used for
the transparency color.

Paint .NET is quite nice and straightforward

After a brief look at OpenOffice.org Draw I decided to post it aswell.
I found an export feature and there should be much more.

For images google "Free stock images" you will find several sites that
offer free images. My favorite being: http://www.sxc.hu/index.phtml

For image editing/manipulation. The best (disputably) is Photoshop,
but free would be gimp, irfanview, or google "free imaging software"
and you will find a ton of them.
