"Paint.NET is image and photo manipulation software designed to be used on computers that run Windows 2000, XP, Vista, or Server 2003. It supports layers, unlimited undo, special effects, and a wide variety of useful and powerful tools. It started development at Washington State University as an undergraduate senior design project mentored by Microsoft, and is currently being maintained by some of the alumni that originally worked on it. Originally intended as a free replacement for the MS Paint software that comes with Windows, it has grown into a powerful yet simple tool for photo and image editing."
"Version 2.5 improves performance, expands selection support to be much more useful and powerful, provides support for localization to other languages, and has an easier way for users to have the latest version (update manager). Other features added include the ability to work with measurements in inches and centimeters, a 3D Rotate/Zoom effect, Sepia adjustment, Radial Blur and Add Noise effects, GIF transparency support, TGA file format support, file format plugin support, and a refined Text tool".
We can't say enough good things about this free program, which is perfect for those not currently using Adobe Photoshop or Paint Shop Pro. The ability to work in 300 dpi+ and multiple transparent layers within an image is by far its biggest selling point (for a free program). It even allows you to adjust layer properties and set transparency levels for colors. As this program develops, we hope to see the ability to open multiple images as well as advanced text effect.
