Paint.NET v3.5 – Released on November 6, 2009, this release focused on improving performance and reliability, reducing memory usage, upgrading to the latest.

It’s free after all! FYI, for those Paint.NET die-hard users, here’s the full changelog for Paint.NET 3.5 Vs. It’s clean interface and ease of use makes it a MUST install on all new systems I build.Įnough talk, go try it out for yourself. Best of all, no crapware or spyware to worry about with Paint.NET! Once installed, I’m sure you will agree that for a FREE application, Paint.NET delivers. The process is very straightforward and shouldn’t take more than a couple of minutes. For new users, just download, unzip and install. To grab the latest update, existing Paint.NET users can just use the built-in Update feature shown on the right. The new update coincides nicely with Microsoft’s release of Windows 7, and yes, as I mentioned earlier it’s tuned for the Windows 7 Aero Glass look and feel. The great thing however about Paint.NET is that it’s very lightweight compared to the more sluggish GIMP or Photoshop applications not to mention it’s FREE.

For those of you not familiar with Paint.NET, think of it as a FREE, quick and simple image editing application (Windows Only) whose features range between good ole’ MSPaint and Adobe Photoshop’s (probably 3/4 of the way towards Photoshop).
