Well, here are the ones I have used/found:
 Kontour (http://freshmeat.net/kontour)-
   Kontour (formerly known as KIllustrator) is the vector drawing
   program for KOffice. The aim of the Kontour project is the
   development of a freely available vector-based drawing application
   similiar to Corel DrawTM or Adobe IllustratorTM. Kontour is part of
   the KOffice package.

 TuxPaint (http://freshmeat.net/tuxpaint) -
   Tux Paint is a simple and entertaining drawing program geared
   towards young children. It has a simple interface, sound effects,
   and a cartoon character (Tux, the Linux penguin). Along with
   drawing brush strokes, lines and shapes, you can also enter text
   and place "rubber stamp" (or "sticker") images on the picture. Tux
   Paint is extensible, and could be useful in an educational
   environment (such as a grammar, elementary, or grade school). It's
   portable across numerous platforms, and runs well even on slower
   systems like the Pentium 133MHz.

 KPaint (http://apps.kde.com/na/2/info/id/498) -
   KPaint, part of the kdegraphics package, is a simple bitmap paint
   program.

Isn't that a little bit redundant? There are already many KDE/QT-based alternatives that allow for more usability/beauty and i18n. Just a comment, I find xpaint outdated and plain ugly, maybe your efforts should be put into programs that are based on modern/pretty widget libraries.
You are right about that xpaint is too old and palin ugly, but i could not find many futures in any other new paint programs such as using the clipboard of the XWindows and not it's own clipboard, it is very simple and easy to use ... I have also tried to write such a program in QT3, but i did not had any time to finish it's basic things. if you find any qt3, Xlib or gtk2 "not gnome" programs with these futures please tell me because i realy need to include them in Haydar Linux.

Salam, Is there anybody interested in Adding Arabic support to XPaint, because i am searching right now for an easy paint program for Linux "GIMP is very dificult for new users" and the best one i could find is xpaint.

xpaint is and old paint program but have a lot of futures and it is also an easy program to use, if there is anyone interested in making it support Arabic rendering then please go for it.

Haydar
