would anyone know the terminal command to get PINTA???

EDIT:

Found it! For anyone who wants an easy terminal command....

Code:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:moonlight-team/pinta

    sudo apt-get update

    sudo aptitude install pinta

installs version 0.5 so if anyone knows the command to get 1.0 please share

Code:

Yeah, that's the problem with GIMP. It's a sledgehammer when someone wants a jeweler's hammer. And it isn't simple to learn to use -- for a non-techie. I'm on the hunt right now for something simple for my wife to use. GIMP ain't on the list.
