do any of you photographers in here use this for tweaking little things in your photos like brightness etc

hoping for a few pointers from people as ive buggered up quite a few good pics trying to improve them :?

ok now im REALLY confused? :? i went rummaging through my recycle bin to get some of the pics i had buggered up and show them to you and ask what i had done wrong, they all had like a very grainy texture to them after i had tweaked them, when i uploaded them they seemed to come out ok?

They were grainy probably due to the size you were viewing them at .. i.e. they are usually crystal clear at 25% of full size and 50% of full size - but anything in between makes them look odd.
