Unfortunately I'm unable to scan the image again.

Is there any way I can rotate the image slightly to make it horizontal?

I know in MS-Paint it's possible to rotate images by 90 or 180 degrees, but I only want to rotate this image by about 10 or 20 degrees.

Thanks!!

The Gimp (Gnu Image Processor - careful what you google for when searching for the gimp ) or irfanview will do it for you too - both free software.

Personally I think http://www.getpaint.net/ is the best free image software - its a little easier to use than the others.
