Nerus Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 Will Paint.NET come out with a version for Mac? And if not, are there any alternatives? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ego Eram Reputo Posted November 7, 2012 Share Posted November 7, 2012 No. From the FAQ: http://forums.getpaint.net/index.php?/topic/399-frequently-asked-questions-faq/ (1) Will it ever be ported to Mac OS, Linux, or any other operating system? (2) What about Mono support? Wouldn't that be really easy? We will not be doing any work to directly support Mac OS, Linux, Mono, or any other platform. We are doing this in order to focus on the best quality and support for the platform that we develop on: Windows with .NET. Also, we simply do not have the resources or expertise to do any of this work.

skullbonz Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Rick,what do you mean by "Parallels Desktop." ? I know several people,some relatives in a nearby state who would like to try pdn but can't because their state is mostly mac users on aol and it won't work. If this is a way it will,I am all ears.

pdnnoob Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 (edited) http://www.parallels...oducts/desktop/ a simple google search would have answered your question Edited November 9, 2012 by pdnnoob Quote No, Paint.NET is not spyware...but, installing it is an IQ test. ~BoltBait Blend modes are like the filling in your sandwich.

avim1968 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 (edited) Hi You can do what my friend did. He moved from XP to OSX , so he used a software called VirtualBox which is free he installed it on his OSX and made a virtual machine out of his old XP harddrive. Now he has a faster XP and he continues to run Paint.Net on the virtual XP machine. if you don't have a windows machine., you can install one from a CD directly to virtual box https://www.virtualbox.org/ Avi . p.s. it works great and when using full screen you have a d@@m fast XP on the new OSX :-) Edited November 9, 2012 by avim1968 Quote "DDAP=Don't Drink And Post!" :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
