Ok, I just installed Pinta from launchpad. After the installation finished I decided to remove the ppa source lists. I run the application just fine, Pinta fire-up flawlessly.

I do this for any other applications that I'd installed from launchpad. Any suggestion?

Is it fine to remove ppa source list while the application is not removed?

If the application gets an update you won't get it automatically (or at least not when you do sudo apt-get upgrade) so in most of cases, no, is not fine, since you will not receive updates and security fixes, bug fixes, etc. You can do it, but is on your own risk.
