mtPaint was started by British programmer Mark Tyler, as a personal project in 2004. He wanted a graphics editor for his own use, and then decided to share it as a free software program, licensed under the GNU General Public License. He started the project on 7 August, 2004, and made the first public release just 37 days later, on 13 September, 2004. Tyler attributed his rapid development to having studied mhWaveEdit, which was written by Magnus Hjorth. | mtPaint was started by British programmer Mark Tyler, as a personal project in 2004.
