Re: Paint.Net 4.0 is now available
#122I'm unfamiliar with Paint.NET. I'm sure this question gets asked a lot, but could someone summarize the main differences between Paint.NET and GIMP?

#123Once I read somewhere that Paint.NET developer is the only in the interwebs than can make a living out only of donations for his software. I don't know if this is true, but it is totally deserved. I use Paint.NET for a lot of things, most of them professionally. If I someday get lucky in this startup lottery thing, I intend to donate some thousands of dollars. EDIT for add: I see a lot of comments talking about using…
Sadly, this reminds me of the joke:

> Its a shame you have to play 'guess the download link' - that has really stopped me from recommending it to people recently. It's one of the tools available on Ninite. Point them there instead: https://ninite.com/ .
Or Chocolatey: http://chocolatey.org/packages/paint.net/
chocolatey looks amazing!!!

#125Paint.NET is one of the first things I get when I install windows somewhere. It's actually pretty frustrating that there isn't a nice simple image editing tool like that for Mac (or Linux). There's Gimp but...
I actually run paint.net inside a windows vbox on OS X. Pixelmator doesn't cut it. People say paint.net is simple but it's actually very powerful. It's just designed so well that it fools people into thinking it's simple.
Also wondering what is wrong pixelmator. My trial ran out before I could decide whether it was really capable enough. It seemed like something wasn't quite right with it though.

#126My GF is a teacher who did some graphics design and typesetting part-time during her time at the university. She used the Adobe products of course. When teaching at a school for the first time, and doing image manipulation with the pupils, she had to use Gimp because it is free and because of that the "oficially recommended" program. She had real trouble adjust to the GUI and teaching it to her pupils and at the same…
I agree the GIMP developers are missing out on a big opportunity by not making their UI look/behave more like the commercial products people are used to. But on the other side there are a lot of people used to the current GIMP UI as well. Good thing there are projects like Gimpshop (though I havent' tried it yet), GIMP is a open source project so I don't see why we wouldn't have multiple UI's just like there are for…
Every time image editing comes up on forums, so does mentions of GIMP. To me, there seems to be no shortage of "GIMP has UX problems" claims.
So what gives? Do they not believe that this is a legitimate problem hurting their adoption? Or do they not care about adoptions? Somehow it's not a priority? Or their execution is severely lacking.

> There's Gimp but... Yeah. Gimp doesn't really cut it in my books. I'd love to get paint.net running in Linux under Wine, but so far all my attempts have failed.
I'm too stupid to use Gimp. It's like every time I want to do something I think is really simple (and in other tools it is really simple) takes me longer to do in Gimp. Sometimes I can't get it right, give up and try something else.
Too stupid? Not at all. I've used GIMP almost daily for years and still find it counter-intuitive.
Paint.NET looks really good, so I may finally make the switch.

#128For the people asking for a Mac or Linux equivalent, Paint.NET is actually a .NET Framework application (hence the .NET) and has been ported to run on Mono: https://code.google.com/p/paint-mono/ (a little out of date, but still.)

Actually RGB is better for professional printing. Printers typically have specific colour profiles for their printers and converting your CMYK profile to their CMYK profile will usually result in differences you weren't expecting.
RGB -> CMYK (@ the printer) will be closer to what you expect (what you saw on screen).

Maybe he makes money also with the 50 pages displaying ads you have to visit before to be able to download the file. But this does not detract from the qualities of the software, that I use daily.
You can also install from Chocolatey: https://chocolatey.org/packages/paint.net
cinst paint.net
