I got ahead of myself on this forum. Hi, you can call me Tortoise! I dabble in just about everything and have been using MyPaint among other open source creative software for over a decade. MyPaint still remains my ultimate digital sketchbook, so now that I’ve learned more about programming I hope I can finally give something back to a project that was my sole painting tool for a few years when I was doing freelance.

Hello. I have used mypaint off and on for years At first on Puppy Linux then on Windoze and lately on Linux Mint. I am a long way from competence with this program but I have been attracted to its minimalist format. I just want to sketch with it. Thanks for being here.

I am Kazam from Pakistan. Not a professional artist or graphics designer but I use Krita, GIMP and Inkscape for personal projects and game mods, etc. Just tried MyPaint and really loved it. I also want to thank the developers for not taking the libadwaita route and adding that dreadful UI.

We are Nightpaw, Autumn, Glitch, and Onyx. We live in America and we want to use MyPaint for getting into digital art. We mainly make therian-related things, lgbtq-related things, or something related to one of our fandoms, though we might do other things sometimes too.
We’re really glad to be here, and glad we finally found a free art site we can use.
