   Very nice find. I am going to add it to my favorites so I can check them one at a time. 50 applications are too many for me right now :)

   You are welcome! I noticed on the comments section of the page that not everyone agrees with the author. Maybe their suggestions are better.

   Oh, I love Tuxpaint, it's really great - not only for children.
   I use it very often for making funny pictures out of my photos for my grandchildren. But those kids are much better than I, their fantasy is uncensored.
   To OpenSource alternatives - I prefer them mostly to other freeware. But often the description is not very noob-friendly, got many of my gray hairs on Sourceforge net, trying to figure the "what, where, why" out.
