Krita, part of KOffice, can do everything you want with images — or it will be able to one day. Everything from photo retouching, image editing, and last but not least creating original art on your computer as if you were working with real paint and brushes, pencils, pen and ink. Every day Krita becomes a little better, a little more useful. We are working on it, anyway. We, that is, \Bart, Boudewijn, Casper, Cyrille, Lukas, Sven and others. It could be you, too — whether you would like to help with some artwork for the user interface, cool ideas for the todo, helpful bug reports, usability reviews or even actual code, you will not be snubbed by us. Join us on our mailing list (kimageshop-devel@kde.org) or on irc — #koffice@freenode.net.

Krita is as much yours as it is ours. It should be fun, innovative, and experimental — first and foremost a pleasure to use and to hack on.
