Tips For Using Picasso Photo Editor? (Canon EOS, DSLR, Nikon, Sony)

I just kind of started playing around with Picasso and altering pictures. I know there's probably better software out there that lets you do more stuff but I just found a few effects to add to pics.

Anyone have any suggestions as to cool features in Picasso I havn't found yet? Any good sites that teach you how to use Picasso?

I altered a few pics last night, looking forward to playing around wtih some more after work today.

Here's what I got so far...

I'm also curious as to recommendations for my first digital slr camera, something on the cheaper side but still good. I keep hearing the canon rebels are good for beginners, is that a good camera?

There are several cameras in the Rebel line, they are all suitable for beginners.

How do the rebels compare to the Nikon D3000?

There's a similar topic on that here: Which SLR would you choose for a beginner?

There's also a lot of reviews comparing the D3000 to the Rebel XS and other entry level cameras:
