De ontwikkelaars achter Paint.NET hebben maandag een nieuwe alpharelease van versie 3.5 uitgebracht. Dit fotobewerkingsprogramma wordt in C# ontwikkeld en het .NET Framework zal dus op de computer aanwezig moeten zijn. Het programma zit wat functionaliteit betreft tussen het met Windows standaard meegeleverde Paint en professionele commerciële programma's als Paint Shop Pro en Photoshop in. Versie 3.5 werkt op Windows XP of hoger en heeft minimaal versie 3.5 SP1 van het .NET Framework nodig. De release-notes voor deze versie zijn hieronder te vinden:
Changes since the last alpha:Because of the third bullet above, I have not attempted to address many of the crashes that have been reported. The nature of the scan-converter problems may have been widespread. It had a tendency of reporting pixels slightly outside of any clipping bounds that I was giving it, after any error checking had already been performed. So, please be sure to report all crashes even if you know that I've already filed bugs for them.
- When zoomed in, the selection outline is again "pixelated", like it was in v3.36. This allows it to correctly outline the selected area. Compared to the old version, performance is much improved; this is because the amount of computation is proportional to the complexity of the selection instead of proportional to the area of the bounding rectangle surrounding it.
- The magic wand is no longer broken (oops).
- Fixed an important internal algorithm for correctness and improved its performance. The algorithm was the polygon scan-converter (GeometryList class), and its incorrectness may have been causing many other problems.
- Fixed some issues with the Text tool related to font fallback. This was preventing certain characters from showing up and was breaking international text.
- Reduced CPU usage of the font dropdown list.
- Fixed the "This program may not have installed correctly" warning sometimes showing up after installation on Windows 7.

The Gimp is een stuk uitgebreider en ook gratis.
