CUR files however, one plug-in in particular (aptly named the Icon/Cursor Plug-In), allows you to edit. While there aren't very many freeware plug-ins available for Paint.NET, they are both easy to install and easy to run.īy itself, Paint.NET cannot edit. In many ways, Paint.NET is a mix between Photoshop, Paint Shop, and MS Paint.
Recently, I came across an exemplary freeware alternative, called Paint.NET. For example: software developers often create custom icons for their applications even webmasters and bloggers use icons (called the 'favicon') for their websites. It is possible to customize icons and cursors with MS Windows.
