From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Kolorpaint is decent if you don't care about layers.
How do you do any kind of work without having layers?
I use it almost exclusively to resize images (smooth scaling is good) and draw red squares around text.
I've tried it and it's a little too barebones for my needs.
I also do, unfortunately, care about layers.
But I appreciate the suggestion! <3
