The GIMP <http://www.gimp.org/>. Caveat: unless you're running a 1 GHz+ G4 
with 1 GB+ of RAM you'll find The GIMP to be on the slow side.

As for putting text on graphics in GraphicConverter -- it's possible to do 
so without having any white borders but I suspect you're trying to do 
something fancy (have to see the original post to know what it is you're 
trying to do).
