It has fairly advanced functionality you’d usually expect to find in other high end tools such as layers, special effects, and a variety of plug-ins maintained by the large community of supporters providing some very advance features.  Paint.NET was originally intended as a free replacement for Microsoft Paint, but has since grown into a powerful yet simple image and photo editor tool. 

Special effects include blurring, sharpening, red-eye removal, distortion, noise, and embossing are included. Other powerful tools include the Magic Wand for selecting regions of similar colour, and the Clone Stamp for copying or erasing portions of an image.
