I am a **[SIZE=3]Gnome[/SIZE]** fan but in my opinion its better than [COLOR=Red]**[GnuPaint]("http://www.gnu.org/software/gpaint/")**[/COLOR] , plus it's looks like MS-Paint so it remind my the old days. :p

Just installed KolourPaint and opened a small icon image. KolourPaint then warns, "The image contains translucency which is not fully supported..-stuff removed-.. If you save this image, the loss of translucency will become permanent". No translucency? Very disappointed. This is 2011.
