Thanks for the reply, but I think I didn't explain what I was looking for properly. I understand that you get a thumbnail sized image on the image list and layers window, but none are 100% zoom (actual size) What I was looking for was so that you could zoom lets say 800% on the main editing window (pixels would be very big then) while you would have simultaneosly open another small window that would show the image at 100% zoom on top of the main editing window. That way when you edit small graphics like say 32x32 pixels, you can work at a high zoom for added precision, etc. while you can see simultaneosly how the final image (at 100% zoom) will finally look like.
This is a much needed feature if someone is going to do small resolution pixel art (like a game's sprite) and with mspaint you had this opening the thumbnail view. It would be quite cumbersome to zoom in and out all the time, since you do from dozens to hundreds small pixel modification to this kind of images and you need to know how is it going to look at actual size (colours and pixels blend differently when looked from afar).
Still I'm afraid from what I read and found on the internet that there is no such feature implemented yet in paint.net, but I was hoping that even if there wasn't, that it could be added (maybe even with a plugin?) since after all it doesn't seem like something too hard or advanced, and I think this would rise the usefulness of the program for a lot for others like me who want a pixel art editor, since I have found other people who had the same problem choosing applications (looking for a simple editor that had this feature) that saddly had to revert to mspaint (even on macs!).
