- Tharre 10y agoI don't get it, one doesn't need the source code to change a few credits strings and pictures. Making Paint.NET closed source is about as effective as game studios putting more and more advanced DRM mechanisms into their games. I understand why the author is upset, but his cure is worse than the disease.
