Searge (of Minecraft fame) uses Paint.NET for his image editing!  New Minecraft snapshot features textures edited in PdN.

The Doctor: There was a goblin, or a trickster, or a warrior... A nameless, terrible thing, soaked in the blood of a billion galaxies. The most feared being in all the cosmos. And nothing could stop it, or hold it, or reason with it. One day it would just drop out of the sky and tear down your world.
Amy: But how did it end up in there?
The Doctor: You know fairy tales. A good wizard tricked it.
River Song: I hate good wizards in fairy tales; they always turn out to be him.

My university has got Paint.NET on EVERY of their computer (they have at least a few hundred of them). It's 2nd-3rd biggest uni in my country. So I think Paint.NET had been noticed pretty well :)

The small increase in performance you get coding in C++ over C# is hardly enough to offset the headache of coding in the C++ language. ~BoltBait

Paint.NET gets a shout-out in the latest Computerphile video!  Only 7 seconds in.  The video is complicated, but super useful for visualizing how image resizing works.

Found this tutorial on how to create interior maps of Skyrim for use on the UESP . It uses paint.net [3.5.10] to edit .dds files (starting at Part 3).

On a lotta forums I am registered on, When people ask, I always recommend Paint.NET.

 

(FWIW, I have the newer version on a W-7 machine but still prefer (3.5.??) on my W XP 64 bit machine)

Mapmaker Adam Whitehead uses paint.net to (re)create maps of fantasy worlds.

 

I found this wonderful map of the Steven Erikson / Ian C. Esslemont Malazan world on Adam's blog: https://atlasoficeandfireblog.wordpress.com/2020/03/04/a-new-almost-definitive-malazan-world-map/

The larger version runs to 10000 x 5571 pixels - so if you want to print out a wall map - this is it!
