havent used it in ages!

I'm surprised how many people said they are using Paint for screen shots. Thought you would be using IrfanView for that. (And quick image viewing - and link - open in external editor. ie. Photoshop, PhotoImpact, PSP, PhotoFiltre, etc.)

..Just picky.

I also only use paint for posting screen shots to save to file. Used Paint .Net before format, havent really needed it though so I havent reinstalled it.

many tools inside xp are rarely used by many people. thats why we want nLite.........

the tools are more for the amauters, rather than for users with more requirements...

or nobody will buy photoshop!

for screenshots, simple resizing, converting formats

I tried MS Paint many years ago.

It was lame and looked and acted like a kid's toy.

I haven't tried it since. Did they improve it maybe?

I use them regulary , it is my starting point to save my screen captures before further editing...

Screen prints and basic stuff. Does exactly what it says on the tin!!

it's a a real crap!

Yep, I am a Paint user and I am not ashamed of it. I dont use Photoshop because honestly I dont need to. Paint takes care of my meagre requirements.

I use Paint for screenshots and basic stuff. If I want something more complex then I use PS9.

Screenshotting, that's it. But recently I've started using FRAPS - a LOT better for the job.

Someone made this with paint

a drawing that i used mspaint to draw with alittle photophop bluring, it is more than 500 hours work on that one no template eyes work

little story about this drawing it was a fews years ago that picture was on a calender i found it out very nice

so i decided to draw it but i did'nt know how to use softwares so i used the very basic mspaint to do it

this is a second drawing that i did this way the first one was reconized by microsoft. Nhat vinh ly

your comments are pleased and very apprecited

Not in a long time! the jpeg compression is lossy, and the png file sizes are huge .. photoshop is all i use, from screenshots, to pixel art.

DO Microsoft still instal paint with the OS

Havent used it in over 3 years I use photo plus from serif or paint shop pro
