KolourPaint 1.2.2

KolourPaint is a free, easy-to-use paint program for KDE (a desktop environment for UNIX).

It aims to be conceptually simple to understand; providing a level of functionality targeted towards the average user.

KolourPaint is designed for daily tasks like:

-Painting - drawing diagrams and "finger painting"
-Image Manipulation - editing screenshots and photos; applying effects
-Icon Editing - drawing clipart and logos with transparency
-It's not an unusable and monolithic program where simple tasks like drawing lines become near impossible. Nor is it so simple that it lacks essential features like Undo/Redo.

The main difference between KolourPaint and most other "simple" UNIX paint programs is that KolourPaint actually works.

KolourPaint is opensource software written in C using the Qt and KDE libraries. It is developed in the KDE SVN repository and is shipped with KDE releases.
