Adobe Photoshop is an excellent graphics tool and its integration with
Dreamweaver is superb.
However, many libraries may not need all of the bells and whistles that come
with that program.
GIMP provides a great alternative:

With a single user license for Photoshop Elements running at $139.99 and the
full version of
Photoshop at $699 the GIMP open source alternative may be just what you need
to facilitate your graphics.
If you have experience with Photoshop, the learning curve should be
relatively low.
