Tux Paint is a paint program intended for young children (ages 3 and up). It has a very simple and fun-to-use interface, lots of sound effects, and a cartoon penguin who helps explain things. A variety of drawing tools are available, including a set of 'magic' special effect tools, and a 'rubber stamp' (or 'stickerbook') tool for placing pre-drawn and photographed images into a picture.
Tux Paint is free software, released under an Open Source license. It has been translated into over 2 dozen languages, including Spanish, French, German, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Greek and Hebrew. It also runs on Windows, Linux and BeOS.
What is new in this release:
Tux Paint 0.9.21 features nearly two dozen new Magic tools, as well as updates to old favorites. Many of these were developed by six students from around the globe during Google's 2008 Summer of Code program, under the mentorship of Tux Paint developers.
