I like MS Paint for its simplicity. It’s small, fast, and quite handy for creating a simple button/banner (Like the one you see below Capt. Jack Sparrow’s picture on the sidebar).

Until I found Paint.NET. This program’s loading time is slower to MS Paint by less than 1 second. So it’s nothing to complain. The interface is almost similar to MS Paint

Some feature comparison between MS Paint and Paint.NET:

Features	MS Paint	Paint.NET
Tabbed document interface	no	yes
Layers	no	yes
Live thumbnail	no	yes
Number of Colors Supported	28 (although you can select other colors by going through the menu: Colors – Edit Colors – Define Custom Colors)	alot
Special Effects (sharp, blur, emboss, distortion, etc.)	no	yes

And a lot more features …

And the best part, it’s open source. The online community is very active. So you can expect many plugins written by the community.

Paint.NET Minimum System Requirements:

• Windows XP (SP2 or later), or Windows Vista, or Windows Server 2003 (SP1 or later)
• .NET Framework 2.0
