Sandy’s Great Graphic Find: Paint.NET

July 27, 2020 by Liz

Paint.NET packs a lot of power in a small package

Great Find: Paint.NET

Permalink: https://www.getpaint.net/index2.html

Target Audience: All computer users

Content: Who doesn’t like free? While some argue that this might not be the application a graphics professional would use, it is a powerful photo and image manipulation application to add to the average computer user’s toolbox. This week we’re looking at Paint.NET, a Windows application.

Thanks to Chris at Martial Developmentfor pointing out this tool.

Here are five things I like about Paint.NET:

  1. The application is free and open source (of course this is #1)
  2. It’s easy to learn – no classes needed
  3. You can undo and redo actions with the history feature
  4. It has layers, allowing you to easily create composites
  5. Red eye removal, rotate, and zoom are just a few of the special effect adjustments you can make

Paint.NET is a tool you will want to try. The CNET review lists it with 4 stars from both editors and users.

Stay tuned… next week is ?
