KolourPaint Tutorial

What is KolourPaint?
KolourPaint is a Free, raster graphic editor by KDE, similar to Microsoft's Paint application before Windows 7.
It aims to be conceptually simple to understand, providing a level of functionality targeted towards the average user. KolourPaint is designed for daily tasks such as:

• Painting: drawing diagrams and "finger painting"
• Image Manipulation: editing screenshots and photos; applying effects
• Icon Editing: drawing clipart and logos with transparency
