I downloaded Paint.NET: It's sh**.

don't use it for sprites, EVER.

And On a 6 year old PC, Firefox is not good. Crashtastic, yes. But good? NO.

Paint.Net works well for me, atleast it's free.

Paint.net isnt as good as Gimp 2.0, atleast when it comes to making Decals. I couldnt get it done at all with Paint.net, while in Gimp 2.0 I could follow the instuctions almost 100% and got the job done. Speaking ow wich, the tutorial quide on wiki fails to mention that the decal must be 64x64 or then I missed that part.

Alteast Paint.net start up faster, so you can make screenshots png quicker.

I'm looking for a file editing program that can rotate things 45 degrees. Help?

I am not sure what kind of 'paint' like software to get. I don't have a lot of space left. Is photoshop a good idea?

Game Maker can.... In fact, you can type in any number you want.

paintshop pro 7 does that but im not sure how much it costs.

In Gimp, you can choose the decree of rotation by typing the number.

if you mean you can bring up a box that give an option of left or right rotation 90 turn, 180 degree turn, 270 degree turn or free rotation(you type in a number and it rotates the amount of degrees) then its the same as paintshop pro 7.

Hmmm, I seem to be able to use paint.net fine.....

Then again, vista also isn't confusing for me either......

Everytime I try to type something in Gimp it crashes.
