A new license for Paint.NET v3.5
Over the years I’ve had to put up with several individuals, and companies, trying to plagiarize Paint.NET by recompiling the program under a different product name and with their own name stamped into the credits.

Leftover Domain Names - “The Lambda Closure”
If anyone is interested in purchasing this block of domain names, please contact me — either in the comments here (leave a valid e-mail!), or via "contact …at… getpaint.net"
