"Paint.NET gives commercial photo editing programs some serious
competition," - DevSource
"Paint.NET looks and feels similar to premium programs like Paint Shop Pro
or Photoshop." - The Kim Komando Show

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. The programming language used to create Paint.NET is C#, with a
small amount of C++ for setup and shell-integration related functionality.
