CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
This compact program edits images and animations in the most popular formats. Despite its small size, this application has all the essential image-editing features, including tools for cropping, resizing, correcting colors, applying various effects, and drawing with a brush or pen. Similar to full-fledged graphic-design packages, the program supports layers and even lets you create simple animations. Saint Paint uses all the standard hot keys found in other image editors. Considering its small size and decent capabilities, Saint Paint makes a nice pick for those who don't need the advanced features offered by full-blown packages such as Photoshop.Publisher's description
From Mark Judge :Saint Paint Studio is a paint package designed to be the essential base tool for editing photos, Web graphics, icons, images, and animations. Developed initially for use in the games industry, it comes with the most vital tools needed by professional artists, designers, and programmers, but is suitable for users with any level of experience. It's also extremely well suited to making fun, doctored photos. Many file formats are supported, including GIF, JPEG, BMP, ICO, TGA, and AVI.
When saving, each format's attributes are fully explained to avoid loss of image quality. Among its many features are animation editing; layers and alpha channels; batch-image conversion; photo sharpening, blurring, embossing, and despeckling; a red-eye filter; controls for brightness, contrast, and gamma; image resizing; color reduction; a full set of essential color-palette-manipulation features for true-color, 256-color, 16-color, and 2-color. Version 10.4 includes bug fixes, optimal GIF compression fix, and minor extra features.

Version: Saint Paint Studio 10.4
"What a cheat and a rip-off!! A waste of $20+!!!"
Pros: Good image editor, had many features and better than paint...
Cons: ...but after I found the GIMP (GNU Image Manipulator Program), this program became a complete total waste!!!! The GIMP is the free equivalent of Photoshop, but THIS piece of crap is like Paint.NET, but only you have to pay $20. If you want a REAL image editor under $100, or better, even FREE, get the GIMP.

Version: Saint Paint Studio 10.4
Pros: I was in love with Saint Paint when I met it, it's excellent for editing your GIF animations, or just about any other image format you can think of for that matter.
Cons: A lot of annoying bugs that havent been improved, even since earlier on at v6.0. Sometimes you'll be working on a picture/animation for twenty minutes and one wrong command just shuts the program down.
