Hello folks,
OK - so i've been reviewing Open Source (free) software for my work - and came across Paint.NET (http://www.getpaint.net). I gotta say, it's a brilliant bit of kit (for windows XP and above only) - works wonderfully well and has most features that other commercial paint packages have. It's very similar to Photoshop in a lot of ways and has some nice filters. Here's one I used earlier (sketch plugin)....

Anyway, if you're interested in a free and powerful paint program - look no further. I even spoke to the guy who wrote it too, and he's a great guy. Anyway, if you wanna support the open source community then download it and pass the word around. You can get it here...
Click here to get me a copy of Paint.NET (http://www.getpaint.net/download.html) ...or... Click here to go to the official website! (http://www.getpaint.net/) ...or... If you want to donate something to the authors (http://www.getpaint.net/donate.html)
This package also requires .NET framework by Microsoft - which will need to be installed first. You can download it here! (http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/downloads/updates/default.aspx)
