Comments and Reviews
Its very simple program, but the most similar to paint WIndows (no .net) and I dont need more than that.
I could not even cut an image in a way that the middle area remained and the left and right side were cut off. Instead only the right side was cut off. No options available.
This is basically KDE (Linux as a whole) alternative to the classic MS Paint, don't look at it as anything more than that.
Its exactly what I needed for basic editing.
Doesn't support transparent PNGs.
Transparent areas become white.
