Reliability: 1.0
Crashes constantly. In one day I lost time and progress to crashes multiple times. Just use any of the many good alternatives and save yourself time and problems.

Version: 1.6
Hello!
I recently switched from Windows to Mac and have been looking for something to replicate the paint bucket fill feature in Paint. I read some suggestions online and downloaded Pinta as it seemed like the most basic app I could see, which appealed to me as I am specifically looking for just this feature. After installation I tried to open it and it promoted me to download the mono.framwork, which I did following the link and I understand I downloaded the most recent version. After download completed I installed it and tried again to open Pinta but now it just crashes as soon as I try to open it... doesn't actually open at all. Can anyone help me? I'm wondering if I should remove this and the mono framework from my system (if I can even figure out how to do that), but still hopeful there might be a simple way to solve this. Any help would be appreciated!

The required Mono Framework is no longer available, at least from the link in the App.

Also works with slightly lower system specs:
works fine on Mac OS X 10.5.8 (MacIntel) with MonoFramework-MRE-2.10.9_10.macos10.xamarin.x86
