Portable Tux Paint

Portable Tux Paint is a software utility which can help children over 3 draw everything they desire, using some of the many fun tools provided.

This is the portable version of Tux Paint which means the installation process can be skipped altogether. As a consequence, the Windows registry and Start menu/screen are not going to suffer any changes, and there will be no leftovers upon its removal.

Another aspect worth mentioning is that by dropping the program files to a portable storage device, such as a USB flash drive, you make it possible to use Portable Tux Paint on any computer you can have access to, with just a click.

This software tool can be used by all children, as it encloses many encouraging tips from a cute cartoon, as well as some funny sound effects. The interface is very simple and contains a toolbar, a list of all colors available and a panel where to draw.

There are multiple types of brushes you can choose from, as well as stamps, lines and shapes. Aside from that, it is possible to add text (with custom font), use “magic” options (bricks, chalk, distort, emboss, fill, darken etc.), undo or redo actions, save, print or erase your project.

The installation folder also contains a configuration tool for parents or teachers, so that they can enable or disable sound effects, fancy cursor shapes and keyboard shortcuts, change the language, automatically save work when quitting and the list goes on.

To sum up, Portable Tux Paint is a useful drawing software for children over the age of 3. It comes with a myriad of options, encloses a multi-language and intuitive environment, as well as step-by-step help.
