Ultimate Paint

Ultimate Paint is a feature-rich application designed to offer professional ways to create unique drawings, as well as view, edit and manipulate multiple photos. It features an extensive collection of image effects, like blur, noise, color glow or gradient.

Create paintings using the built-in drawing tools

It's wrapped in an accessible interface, formed from several movable panels (color palette, menu) and the editing area. The app supports the following picture formats: JPEG, GIF, PCX, TGA, PNG, BMP, WMF/EMF, IFF/LBM and WAP, along with TWAIN-compatible scanners.

Choose the drawing instrument and set its properties

From the left pane, you can select the desired painting tool, such as standard and curved line pen, brush and spray, and customize their thickness, color and transparency. Plus, the utility comes with some special brushes, like outline, halve, double, stretch or shear, with which you can create interesting designs.

Apply numerous photo effects to your designs

In addition, you have the option to insert rectangles, ellipses and text boxes, as well as clone a particular image area. Ultimate Paint lets you apply special effects to your creations, such as artistic (e.g. diffuse, emboss, neon), color (warm, gradient, glow), fun, generator, noise, stylize, photo or web. Sadly, it doesn't come with picture adjustments for brightness, contrast, hue or saturation, among others.

Convert multiple images at the same time

A nice touch is the option to load the current wallpaper into the app and apply further editing. What's more, you can batch convert photos from a file format to another, while keeping a high quality. From the settings, you can load your own color palette, select what file extensions should be linked to the tool (e.g. BMP, JPG, PNG), and use additional plugins.

Comprehensive image editor

All in all, Ultimate Paint is a reliable software solution that comes in handy when you want to view, modify and enhance your pictures with ease. It can also be used to create unique paintings with the aid of the offered drawing tools.
