When it comes to image editing, many people automatically think of complete design suites such as: Krita, Gimp, Photoshop … But this does not turn out to be entirely true as there are users who are only looking for an editor to do simple things such as, for example, annotations on images. Although Windows includes the iconic MSPaint app, on Linux finding an application with similar characteristics is a bit tedious. That is why the developer “maoschanz” has launched the new Drawing app which is designed to offer an Out-The-Box experience similar to MSPaint on Linux.
