Description

Paint.NET is a photo and image editing application designed for Windows-based PCs. It boasts a user-friendly and innovative interface, complete with features like layers, the ability for unlimited undo actions, special effects, and a broad range of powerful tools. Additionally, an active and expanding online community offers helpful guidance, tutorials, and plugins to enhance the user experience. This software originated as an undergraduate project mentored by Microsoft, and it is currently developed and maintained by Rick Brewster. Initially conceived as a free alternative to the default Microsoft Paint application, Paint.NET has evolved into a robust yet accessible tool for image and photo editing. It has been favorably compared to other well-known digital photo editing software options, including Adobe® Photoshop®, Corel® Paint Shop Pro®, Microsoft Photo Editor, and The GIMP. By offering an economical solution, Paint.NET stands out as a smart choice for users looking to avoid expensive commercial software while still accessing high-quality editing capabilities. The combination of its features and community support makes it an appealing choice for both novice and experienced users alike.

Description

Pixen is a professional pixel art editor designed for working with low-resolution raster art, such as those 8-bit sprites found in old-school video games. Take advantage of Pixen's wide array of tools when composing pixel art such as Pencil, Eraser, Brightness, Text, Eyedropper, Zoom, Rectangular Selection, Magic Wand, Lasso, Move, Fill, Line, Rectangle, and Ellipse. Compose your artwork with layers, taking advantage of the flexibility layers provide when working with complex pixel art. Change opacity, blending modes, and more to compose creative effects. Use filters to adjust colors, create effects, and post-process your artwork. With Pixen, you can add and organize commonly-used colors into palettes. Create and arrange image frames in the filmstrip view to piece together animations. Pixen can import animations from animated GIFs, animated PNGs, and even sprite sheets! It can also export animations as animated GIFs, animated PNGs, movies, and sprite sheets. Take advantage of Pixen's grid tools to guide you in placing pixels just where you want them. Define custom patterns to use while drawing with the Pencil, Line, or Eraser tool (instead of a single pixel).
