Bill,

I just wanted to let you know that my (four year old) daughter Ashlyn
*loves* Tux Paint! I set her up on it last night (using the Debian
package--nice!) and she asked for it again this morning. It didn't take
her long to get up to speed really at all. The only time she got
confused was when she accidently clicked the load or save buttons and a
dialog would pop up.

She loves the stamp feature--the Tux stamps are her favorite. She also
really took the line feature. Check out what she did last night:

(sorry, I'm so obviously a proud father ;-) ).

Thanks for a great app, Bill!
