Old habits die hard!

Sad times. So many poor creations have been made using paint.

Also googled ms paint art. Unbelievable what some people can do with it.

First photobucket killing my account and now paint. I bet the Russians and Corbyn are behind this.

Paint 3D. That is what will replace Paint. It's exactly the same just more features. It's already on Windows 10 if you have it

 

[adamlstr]

Not sure it's popped up yet

Jim'll paint it will be mortified!

According to MS, paint will be available to download for free in the windows store.

He's already made a statement, all is well

 

[BoatNonce]

Yep, he uses XP paint on a virtual machine.

It's also being replaced by Paint 3d, so is not going entirely...

 

[BoatNonce]

It's not going now anyway, just won't be installed by default.

Seems being "retro" is cool.
Wonder if they will leave it in the Windows Store and leave it to be an old application and never update it, then phase it out gradually.
