Official Microsoft Paint for Mac doesn't exist. Is there Paint for Mac? Well, not really. And lots of people wish there was Paint for Mac as well. Still, Windows Paint might be the most widely used graphic software around. It's clunky, slow, not accessible to beginners, and at the same time doesn't offer enough for pro-level users. It's true that objectively MS Paint is not the best raster graphic editor around. Twenty-five years later, every Mac still includes a basic text editor in TextEdit, but a simple paint program is a thing of the past. When Apple released the original Macintosh in 1984, they included two applications: MacWrite and MacPaint. GIMP is a freely distributed program for such tasks as photo retouching, image composition.
But you've probably felt that there is one missing program which has inadvertently won the hearts of PC users worldwide - Microsoft Paint.
If you've been using PCs all your life and have recently switched to a Mac, you wouldn't miss a lot. Replace Mac defaults and discover new gems in one suite.
