I have zero artistic inclination so 90% of image manipulation I do is simple resize/scale/draw line operations, with the remaining 10% being some sort of select+move operation to show mockups, adding transparency or something on that level of complexity. I have GIMP installed and respect it, but as any "real" editor it's too complex for me. KolourPaint does the simple operations I need, with fundamentally the same UI as Win 3.1 pbrush.exe had.

KolourPaint fills a small niche but does it very well.
