People who use Linux don't seem to realize how painful bandaid that is to tear for Windows users. And don't get me wrong, I know Linux supports all of that and more, and in the long run it's better for everyone. But breaking people's habits is a tough achievement to make. People will get use to some pointless tool which is not available for Linux and that's it. Deal broken. Not to mention having multiple tools that your job depends on. Sure you can learn a new thing or two, but that can be also overwhelming for many.

I wish I had paint dot net, but it was a small price to pay for all of my games working

You can use GIMP though the UI takes a bit to get use to

I use Krita, Gimp, Pinta, and Inkscape depending on the use case

And would be considered a long term user now but thank you for offering a solution
