[Feature-request] KolourPaint as a competition to MS Paint
Last modified: 2005-08-26 15:01:47 UTC
MS Windows (all version) include a very simple to use graphics editor. GNU/Linux systems until now delivered either difficult to use pro editors (GIMP), or very feature-lacking editors (XPaint, KPaint). Now all has changed. Now the OSS world can show "KDE KolourPaint" - the next generation simple graphics editor - a powerful competition to Microsoft's Paint, which delivers more features, while has easiest-in-the-world interface! Simple Paint program is a very essential component of any modern OS. Xandros and Fedora already incorporated it.
Currently it is included in kdegraphics3-imaging RPM package. However, due to the high importance of a simple graphics editor, I recommend to install it by default on a new SuSE Linux system.
I disagree with your "Simple Paint program is a very essential component of any modern OS." statement. But I changed the wording of the kdegraphics3-imaging description to say simple paint instead of small paint, that's indeed a bit misleading
please at least include that package on the CDs.
