You may ask Jim Frimmer 's partner and former top AR blogger Russel Ray what he uses, 'cause I'm pretty sure he has that program. Just PM Jim, it'll email him and he can ask Russel.

Give PicMonkey.com a try.

Just move the sliders you see on the left to select the tone you want.

I was able to do the same using Word image editor.
