I'm happy to see him using Paint.NET to edit the graphics. I've yet to see a free image editor that remotely compares in usability and power; I just wish it were available for Mac and/or Linux.

GIMP?

I tried it on Ubuntu a while ago, and it was the most inhumanly difficult program I've ever used. It always seemed none of the tools looked anything like what I wanted to do. It probably exceeds Paint.NET in its capabilities but would take far longer to learn.

I agree with fferen, GIMP may be more powerful, but it is far less usable, in my experience.
