Pinta 3.0 Basically fixed all my complaints, works flawlessly now, and it's just what i look for, Krita and Gimp are too advanced, and stuff like KolourPaint is too simple, i needed an inbetween like paint.net, and this is the linux equivalent, i really like the new layout, things just make sense again now, and it makes sense while looking good too!
Frustrating. I'm trying to open a number of files to resize them. It doesn't save the last location that I opened the file, so I have to browse to the same folder for every image.
Then, when I am resizing the image, it doesn't save the last resize settings (for instance, 50%), so I have to input the resize amount again.
Revisited 2025. Out of numbers of light to medium-weight editors with layer ability, Pinta, stands out for simplicity, ability, and lightweightness. It even has an arrow/leader option. :-)
Free, lightweight, intuitive.
This is an excellent graphics program for those who do not have too many requirements. I discovered it relatively recently, when most (if not all) of the reported shortcomings have been resolved. Coming from Paint.net, I find it perfect for my needs.
Pinta is the best alternative to Paint.Net forever!
Simple photo/scan/image editor.
