You feeling alright?
Just Photoshop or GIMP will work well. If you can't find those then I don't think you should be making maps, and should perhaps go back to school for a bit...
Hehe, yeah. The GIMP (Found here:
http://www.gimp.org/windows/) is a free Photoshop alternative, made for Windoz, originally created for GNU/Linux systems. However, through a recent Wine update, Photoshop does indeed work in a Linux environment.
Since Photoshop isn't free, you could also try Paint.NET, (Found here:
http://www.getpaint.net/) which is another free alternative, if you don't like GIMP.
Making maps takes skill, so don't expect them to look awesome right away, unless you are pro.
