Shannon,

   I've looked for something similar for Linux, but all I've found are
these, which aren't quite what you're looking for:

I'm CCing this to the schoolforge-discuss and seul-edu mailing lists in the
hope that someone on one or the other of those lists might either know of
such a program for Linux or be willing to write something similar.  (It
seems to me that doing something like this won't require a new program so
much as limiting the options on some existing picture editing program).
