#162Please turn off anti aliasing and it will be perfect!

#163Seriously cool. Love the old school UI. It immediately put a smile on my face. It works great on mobile. I did find a bug though. If I switch to red, I can't switch back to black. Android, chrome.

#164It's missing the zoom bug, which lets you zoom all the way to 10x by clicking just under the 8x button. Personally I was very fond of that.
There's an issue for that: https://github.com/1j01/jspaint/issues/35

I thought Paint.NET was free, just not OSS? I installed it on a machine a few weeks ago, no payment changed hands..
It's free but still Windows-only. I use it on Windows machines but miss it heavily on Mac and Linux. Perhaps somebody would actually port it to Mono if it was truly free.
It has too many dependencies beyond .NET and Windows Forms by now. Text rendering is DirectWrite, for example, other parts use Direct2D, the UI partially uses WPF as well if I remember correctly.

On Windows I've been using Paint.NET for years now. It's absolutely brilliant. Lightweight editing with quite a bit of extra features like properly working undo. Free, lots of updates, good UX. I use it at least few times a week. Recently I've been on OS X a lot, and I wasn't able to find a suitable replacement. Like, nothing even remotely close. Quite a shame. Same story for Linux.
There is a Paint.NET remake on Linux called Pinta. Not quite as stable (it struggles with large images), but it has the exact same interface.
Sadly, I find it struggles with small and medium images as well. But with some tlc, it could become the paint.net we are all hoping for...

One thing I noticed is that it doesn't draw zoomed-in images correctly - pixels are blurry. Didn't check if this is Canvas or WebGL, but something in the code begs being changed from LINEAR to NEAREST. (EDIT: turns out to be a Firefox issue; Chrome shows the sweet pretty pixels correctly.) > I really think this is an awesome project, but I am old enough (30) to remember fast performing GUI apps and I don't know if I'…
> until the present web fads go away I don't see that happening. Web apps gave us an environment where it's easy to create complex applications quickly. Now efforts are going towards making these apps smaller and faster, but I don't see developers going back to C++ to develop GUI apps like this one.
Java gave us an environment where it was easy to create complex applications quickly as well.
The web will fade away just like Java did.
