I tried out several image editors mentioned on this site but some of them (like Pixen and Seashore) were very disappointing. These apps were too simple and low level.

Can I run Microsoft Paint on Mac? Or are there any similar programs for macOS? MacOS and Windows users sometimes argue about who has the best third-party software library.

What do you suggest for a (preferably free) image editor on OS X?

P.S: I was using GIMP on Linux and also know that it was released for OS X too, but I want to find new good applications.

You could try Paintbrush (free).As quoted from its website :

Paintbrush is a simple paint program for Mac OS X, reminiscent of Microsoft Paint and Apple’s own now-defunct MacPaint. It provides users with a means to make simple images quickly, something which has been noticeably absent from the Mac for years.

Pixelmator is a great alternative to Photoshop and similar to paint.net on windows

I think it’s too subjective. Anyway, probably the two candidates are:

1) You don’t have Photoshop experience (or want to get far from it): Acorn is for you.

2) You know Photoshop and have some experience with it: Pixelmator will make you feel more at home.

You said that you already know Gimp. I use that at times on my Ubuntu box and my Macbook. Also, Seashore on the Mac for really simple stuff.

Here are a couple of links to open source options.

I use Pixen for the lightweight jobs.

Update 2018: Since I recommended it 8 years ago, Pixen is now a paid app. Apparently I'm not the only one who thought they were doing something right. I wish them well with it. In the intervening time, I've gravitated to using Preview for basic photo editing and markup.

I don't know why nobody talks about Krita.It is free and powerful with a lot of options. I was a real user of Paint.NET and I got sad when I migrated to Mac and didn't get my Paint.NET. Now I am using Krita and this is perfect.

What about the PowerPoint? You can edit images and then take a screenshot.
