Paint.NET Reviews 22

People say it's good but my experience was absolutely horrible. there's no language changing meaning everything was stuck in POLISH because of windows not wanting to switch to english, copy pasting is REALLY difficult because you selected a background you deleted 15 times before, scaling makes things REALLY blurry and i couldn't even find the settings to change it! there's also no alpha lock and the UIs are confusing. please, just get anything else.

Paint.net is NOT free! They want a donation of $10 - $15 to install the app. Deceptive marketing!

preciso ainda concluila fiz um teste achei bem interessante

paint.net est passé en version 5 on y trouve des changements sous le capot avec l’utilisation du GPU, du presse papier et des calques par les filtres, et autres joyeusetés .net 50 par exemple. un nouveau filtre ombre portée. mais aucune avancée dans les autres domaines. calques non destructifs, couches, tracés. 17 outils textes différents et non cumulables, rien pour les pinceaux; pas de 16 bits, ni de raw, pas de masques etc etc.
reste quelques jolies fonctions à chercher dans les menus et des paquets de addons qui travaillent sur des canevas séparés.
beaucoup de rajouts à effectuer sur une liste en anglais cela pourrait rebuter certains.
c’aurait pu être le logiciel gratuit le meilleur du marché mais l’auteur a verrouillé son programme. qu’adviendra t-il de ce soft si son auteur disparait, c’est un grand mystère.
la roadmap indique de gros changement en fin 2027. nouveau système de fichiers; nouveaux calques et modes de fusion et du 16 bits

Great app. not 5/5 because it's really missing the feature of resizing the canvas by dragging the corners like in paint, which would make editing a lot quicker and easier.

These guys are wonderful. Excellent customer service. They are attentive to your requests and do everything to make your experience pleasurable. The quality is excellent .

Nicht mehr so gut wie Früher und umständlich!

Paint.NET is an excellent graphics tool that has become one of my go‑to choices for quick and effective image editing on Windows. What stands out the most is how intuitive it is to use. The interface is clean, logical, and easy to navigate, so even more advanced edits feel approachable and fast to perform.

For more complex operations, the documentation and online guides are a huge help. The instructions are clearly written, well structured, and walk you through step by step, which makes it much easier to fully use features like layers, adjustments, special effects, and more advanced tools.
Performance is great as well – the program is lightweight, fast to start, and responsive even with larger files. Features like layers, unlimited history, a wide range of effects, and support for many file formats (PNG, JPG, WebP, TIFF, etc.) make it more than powerful enough for most everyday design and photo-editing tasks.

One of Paint.NET’s strengths is also its extensibility. There is a rich ecosystem of plugins that add extra effects, tools, and file format support, so you can really customize the program for your needs.

This app is great! Users are reporting that it will crash on them but it's from pressing file and hovering over acquire. This is caused because it's trying to find a scanner/camera or a device and it can't so instead it gives up on life. Instead just press file, and hover as quick as you can to save. Apparently that works. If they moved Acquire to another location it would fix most peoples issues and it wouldn't crash when hovering over this. That's why I didn't give it the extra star.

Very basic options, almost useless.

this product has single handedly carried all my light image editing for the last 10 years or so .. fully opensource and free editing software, and it has allot of free plugins to extend its capabilities !!

Great app, I switched from Ibispaint Windows to this Paint.net due to the 1 hour daily limit on the Ibis.

Paint.net ist gut und übersichtlich und die Kostenlos Version ist auch für den alt tag ist die Kostenlos Version gut den man was arteten muss mit Paint.net ist die kostenpflichtige Version besser und preis Leitung ist auch gut und 9,99 sind ok es ist besser als Paint

Paint.NET is an editing program which adapts to your knowledge and needs.

In my case, it being easy enough to get into and understand but also with possibilities that run deep to create semi-profesional content helped me learn how to edit photos, create elaborate memes, learn about layers, all sorts of snipping tools and provided me with a playground and "toys" to create especially memes to be shared with friends, used in presentations or just to create them for the sake of creating something.

It's an easy program to learn how to use, but I would argue that it's one difficult to master, meaning that it can offer many possibilities.

Happy editing to everyone!

easy to use , simple UI and just has the needed features but not too many

Where do i even begin...
I owe this software my career at this point.
I'm a content creator. I've started using this back in 2017, although i made crap designs, the software NEVER lagged. Worked flawlessly and fast. ITS FREE AS WELL :D

This software not only beats the competition, but it leaves it in the dust, the ability to add custom mods/plugins is AMAZING, you can make easy drop shadows, easy outlines and etc. This is great if you don't want to pay for photoshop.

Idk how this is for artists, because im a Graphic Designer, but i've heard its not the best with drawing tables. But i'm not gonna argue on that since i don't own one myself.

Although this is an amazing software, its missing some features from the competition:
3D Viewer
Texture editor
Extra tools (although, can be accessed from plugins)

Overall, a 5/5 for me. TOTALLY RECCOMEND to everyone looking to get into GFX and other stuff.

I have been using this tool for 15 years. This never failed to amaze me. Simple, but you can do anything you need as photo editing. I definitely recommend it.

This use to be my go to program for certain quick edits. Now its just garbage. EVERY single time I try saving my edited file it crashs. It even crashes if I try to make an unusual or less common edit it crashes. I have been reading online a lot of people have the the same experience. Furthermore it would appear any customer support you might get is garbage as well. I couldn't get this off my laptop fast enough. Don't waste your time. Its actually worse than GARBAGE!

Super simpel and easy to use, and all commands works without any problems, I am a big fan
