its like microsoft paint but ALOT ALOT more features and its absolutely free

Paint.NET - Free Software for Digital Photo Editing

at just only 5 mb its like a miniature version of photoshop
really good software.

Re: Paint.net

been using it for over four years now - it's simply awesome as a lightweight image editor with basic functionality for everyday use.

Re: Paint.net

yeah that’s what i like about it
its so light and fast :k:

Re: Paint.net

I have PhotoShop and GIMP on one of my PC's.... GIMP i use more often as it's not heavy on the system.

Would you say it's better than GIMP?

Re: Paint.net

i've never used gimp :(
so i cant make the comparison maybe LC can :D

its pretty good for light basic functionality for everyday use like Lc bro said.

maroush, Photoshop is in a class of its own, but GIMP and Paint.NET are programs you'd expect to use for image manipulation if you don't need the bells and whistles of a specialized paid-for program like photoshop.

I've used both GIMP and Paint.NET, and slightly prefer the latter because of it's ease of use. Both have pretty much the same functionality, but Paint.NET is sleeker and cleaner interface, tools and widgets are more intuitive, and the secondary image windows aren't as bulky as they are in GIMP.

Re: Paint.net

yeah it even shows tabs of all the images open with a mini thumbnail view of them so u know which is which.
