  1. Review - Paint.NET

    3.0 RC1 (Jan 24, 2007)

    I find a couple of things both amazing and somewhat amusing. First I find the Paint.NET program pretty amazing and that is it just darn good and offered to users for FREE! That is the amazing part, and I also find both amazing AND amusing how some people will come to a site like this to rail on a program such as this and make disparaging comments about the program and tout the fact that there are other better ones, yaddah, yaddah, yaddah... what is amusing to me is WHY do they come here in the first place? If other stuff is so much better, or they have it so good on some other front, then shew, shew, be off with you... go play with your other toys! I am glad someone has the skills, the time and talent and just desire to create something for others to use because they can, and because others appreciate it. Keep GOING! I find this program to be just GREAT! Photoshop it ain't... YET! But does it cost near as much as Photoshop!? ;-) And it has plenty of power for a lot of us. About the only thing I have difficulty with in most cases is how text is handled. I admit I am used to how Photoshop handles text more or less as an object that can be resized, etc. on the fly and I can't seem to do this in Paint.NET, but that isn't enough to disuade me from using it in the least.
