Ridiculous

You developers are pretty friendly to the community here, so I'm risking a reply... I got Paint .NET because I needed a tool for drawing textures, but I found that it wasn't all too good for drawing, or painting. It's ok for photo editing though, which is good. So besides just a brush, and even an air brush (as several have suggested), and the fill styles, I think that there should be an artist's pallet of tools, including: Brush (same as now) Pencil (pencil textured brush) Airbrush (soft edge) Charcol (texture thing again) Chalk (texture) Marker (saturation stuff) Probably more could be added to that list. But the one I really was looking for was the charcoal one. If you've ever used a program called Photo Impact 8, you would probably know what it is. Photo Impact has a lot of features that aren't available in mainstream image editors such as Photoshop (which is strange because it's not as popular). So anyway, It's not my job to dish out work, but I think adding those features will make it a true drawing program. That and something called Soft Edge which softens the edges of a brush, somewhat like alpha where the pixels farther away from the center of the brush are blended with underlying pixels. It takes a percent value. Also somewhat like the already implimented anti-aliasing. It could replace it, but it's not quite the same thing. Might not need an airbrush anymore because a soft edge brush is essentially the same thing. So anyway, I'll get the source code and try to figure something out on my own. EDIT: Actually, I take back what I said. It is pretty good for drawing with. Just need to set the alpha.
