A nice alternative to GIMP on Ubuntu

I’m not one of the many ardent Microsoft haters that use Linux, and as such I’m quite open to taking full advantage of whatever software I can to get the job done, whether I’m in Linux or Windows. I really quite like Paint.Net which I’ve used on Windows as an alternative to Photoshop and the GIMP. You can now get Paint.Net on Linux courtesy of the Mono framework:

$ sudo apt-get install mono-common libmono* mono-gmcs
$ svn co http://paint-mono.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/src paint-mono
$ cd paint-mono
$ ./configure
$ make
$ make install
$ paintdotnet
