Rick Brewster Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Two ways to get it: 1. Via the built-in auto-updater. Go to File -> Updates -> Check Now. Note that if you are using v2.5 Beta 5, a bug in the updater will prevent it from offering you the update, so you'll have to get it manually from our website. Beta 5 expires on Tuesday, so I don't see this as being a very big problem RC1 and RC2 will work just fine. 2. Download it from our website: http://www.eecs.wsu.edu/paint.net . Links for the installer (with and w/o .NET) are on the front page, and the source code is on the Download page. This release is a huge improvement over v2.1b and is a highly recommended upgrade: * Much faster performance and lower memory usage * Full flexibility for scaling, rotating, and moving selections and selected pixels * Ability to subtract from and add to selections * Internationalization (I18N) support * Officially available in German * New Line / Curve tool lets you draw spline and Bézier curves * Ability to work in measurements of inches and centimeters * 3D Rotate / Zoom effect lets you rotate, tilt, and tile images at various perspectives * Radial Blur and Add Noise effects * Sepia adjustment * Improved Text Tool, including higher quality font rendering * GIF transparency support * TGA file format support * Greater extensibility with a brand new File Format API * Simpler, faster setup wizard * Update manager simplifies getting the latest version * Cleaner user interface with none of the annoying flickering of past releases * Many other changes, improvements, and fixes This release does NOT expire. The expiration, or "time bomb", is only for our alpha, beta, and release candidate builds.

Bob Posted November 28, 2005 Share Posted November 28, 2005 Best freeware software in its category. You're wrong. It's the only. Quote No. Way. I've just seen Bob. And... *poof!*—just like that—he disappears into the mist again. ~Helio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Brewster Posted November 29, 2005 Author Share Posted November 29, 2005 Well, Gimp is free, yes. But its UI and target audience are vastly different.

mstrick Posted January 25, 2006 Share Posted January 25, 2006 Hello, I have been trying to download Paint.net 2.5 with no luck. When I click on any of the download links, it tries to redirect me to a page and I get the message that it can't find the URL. Same behavior on both the download and the mirror links. ???
