Preface

Paint.NET is a free image editing tool available for the Windows operating system. Its user interface is very user-friendly and is similar to most of the popular paid image editing tools. Paint.NET can be used by both beginners and advanced users to create stunning images.

Even though it is not as powerful as the paid tools (for example, Photoshop), Paint.NET does a very good job. It can be used for most image manipulation tasks.

Plugins add more effects and functionality, thereby making Paint.NET one of the best free tools available.
