Download

UPDATE 05.05.16: Now there in also a Windows Shell Extension package available! Just install it and Windows Explorer will start showing preview and meta information for Krita files

• Installation package: kritashellex_1.1.0.1_setup.exe

Windows: Unzip and run the bin/krita.exe executable!

• Zip archive: krita-3.0-Beta-master-962bfe1-x64.zip
• Zip archive: krita-3.0-Beta-master-962bfe1-x86.zip

The OSX disk image still has the known issue that if OpenGL is enabled, the brush outline cursor, grids, guides and so on are not visible. We’re working on that, but don’t expect to have rewritten the canvas before 3.0 will be released.

• Disk Image: krita3-beta1-8ec9263.dmg

**The Linux appimage:**After downloading, make the appimage executable and run it. No installation is needed. For CentOS 6 and Ubuntu 12.04, a separate appimage is provided with g'mic built without OpenMP (which makes it much slower)

• AppImage krita-3.0-Beta-master-37389d5-x86_64.appimage for modern distributions
• AppImage krita-3.0-Beta-master-962bfe1-no-openmp-x86_64.appimage for ancient distributions
