mtPaint is a graphic editing program geared towards creating indexed palette images and pixel art

mtpaint_logo mtPaint is a graphic editing program geared towards creating indexed palette images and pixel art. It is aimed to be simple and easy to use.

mtpaint is designed for use on the GNU/Linux and Microsoft Windows computer operating systems, and uses the GTK+ toolkit (version 1 or 2). It was originally created in 2004 and developed by Mark Tyler, but since 2006 it has been maintained by Dmitry Groshev. Released under the terms of the GNU General Public License, mtPaint is free software.

It uses the GTK+ toolkit (version 1 or 2) and runs on PC's via the GNU/Linux or Windows operating systems. Due to its efficient design it can run on older PC hardware (e.g. a 200MHz CPU and 16MB of free RAM).

mtPaint is free software, which means you are able to freely use, modify and distribute it according to the GNU General Public License.

Currently mtPaint is maintained by Dmitry Groshev.
