Overview

Pinta is a drawing/editing program modeled on Paint.NET. Its goal is to provide a simplified alternative to the GIMP for casual users.

Features include:

- Adjustments (Auto level, Black and White, Sepia, …)
- Multiple layers
- Unlimited undo/redo
- Drawing tools (Paintbrush, Pencil, Shapes, …)

Pinta is currently early in development, and should be treated as such.
