Paint.NET is free image and photo editing software for computers that run Windows. It features an intuitive and innovative user interface with support for layers, unlimited undo, special effects, and a wide variety of useful and powerful tools. An active and growing online community provides friendly help, tutorials, and plugins.

Whats New:

Fixed a performance glitch with some tools, where the action and subsequent undo/redo would be slow.
Improved temporary memory usage of commands in the Image menu.
Reduced disk space use by about 12MB by using NTFS compression on installation files used for staging (.MSI) and diagnostics (.PDB).
Fixed many tools' clipping, with respect to an active selection.
Improved compression for PDN files.
Fixed many small miscellaneous crashes and glitches.

Looking good, thanks for the heads up! Only one little thing, anyone else got their tablet (pressure wise) working with this release? My pressure sensitivity is gone with the wind

Tablet pressure sensitivity has been removed from v3.5. It was causing no end of problems because of buggy tablet drivers (crashes and bizarre behavior), and poor quality of code in the implementation (in Paint.NET).

That really blows. I don't have a tablet, so it doesn't affect me, but I do intend to buy one eventually. I can only hope that by the time I can afford one that Paint.net can support it.

I love the new GUI, though, it's looking fantastic.

usually you use a different tool for a tablet and for photo edition.
