  • Great Tool

    I have 5 Websites with tons of pictures and i have to wipe away a textphrase. Normal way would be to go to photoshop and create tons of new pictures and load them up and change. This tool just saved mit tons (at least 5hours) of work! Using only the colorpipe and brush every page was done in pounds ;-) of minutes

  • Recent Use

    I needed to add and position some text over an image and this plugin did the trick. Exactly what I needed. I hope that this plugin is tested for compatibility with Wordpress 6.9 so that potential users have a comfort level, but I used it with 6.9 and it worked fine.

  • An excellent tool

    WP Paint is a great addition to the standard editor in the WP media library. I wouldn't want to be without it now.
