OMG! Ubuntu!<p>Pinta 3.0 Released With New Effects and GTK4 Port</p><p>Indulging your casual creativity (read: making memes, defacing selfies, etc) using open-source tools is made easier with the long-awaited release of Pinta 3.0. Pinta, as long-time Linux users will be aware, is a cross-platform raster graphics tool with a feature set and user-interface partly inspired by popular Windows image editing tool Paint.NET. I previewed the Pinta 3.0 beta back in January and came away impressed. Pinta port to GTK4/libadwaita lends the UI a much-needed modern look – and is more than superficial: usability, performance and stability is bolstered by the toolkit bump. Pinta 3.0 switches to a button-based header bar :sys_more_orange:<br><a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/News" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>News</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/AppUpdates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AppUpdates</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/Graphic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Graphic</span></a>&DesignApps <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/ImageEditors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ImageEditors</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/Pinta" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Pinta</span></a> </p><p>:sys_omgubuntu: <a href="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/04/pinta-3-0-released-with-new-effects-and-gtk4-port" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">omgubuntu.co.uk/2025/04/pinta-</span><span class="invisible">3-0-released-with-new-effects-and-gtk4-port</span></a></p>

OMG! Ubuntu!<p>GNOME’s New Image Viewer is Add Image Editing Features</p><p>Loupe (aka Image Viewer) is GNOME’s modern successor to the venerable Eye of GNOME has picked up its first batch of image editing features. The features in question were only recently merged upstream, aren’t finished, and not yet included in a stable build. But they’re an interesting addition that furthers the likelihood that Loupe could become the default image viewer on Ubuntu. At present, Ubuntu continues to use Eye of GNOME as the default tool for opening and browsing image files on desktop, despite Loupe having officially replaced it upstream in the GNOME project as a GNOME Core app. Loupe :sys_more_orange:<br><a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/News" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>News</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/Gnome" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Gnome</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/Gnome48" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Gnome48</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/ImageEditors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ImageEditors</span></a> <a href="https://hello.2heng.xin/tags/Loupe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Loupe</span></a> </p><p>:sys_omgubuntu: <a href="https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/12/loupe-image-viewer-adds-crop-features" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">omgubuntu.co.uk/2024/12/loupe-</span><span class="invisible">image-viewer-adds-crop-features</span></a></p>
