I’m on Windows 7 and I don’t like my MSPaint. I need a copy of the Vista MSPaint.

What?

What’s wrong with MSPaint on 7, Traud?

It’s not that it’s any worse than the Vista one. I just really enjoyed having all of my options on one bar at once instead of separated into two categories in an Office 2007 style ribbon thing.

I uploaded it just for you. :D

EDIT: Do not upload, it is the wrong thing.

EDIT2: I don’t know why it won’t work, it is from System32.

Try this one, but I doubt it will work.

When I try it says failed to create new document.

Says that for me too. Even when I run it in system32.

edit:
Sidenote: Kids, don’t download files from the internet and run them from system32 unless you know what you’re doing.

I have searched in places like my program files, i cannot see anything to do with MSPaint. In System32, I right click MSPain and there is no ‘go to file loaction’ button either.

There are quite a few new functions. A couple of them simulate crayons, markers, paint brushes, etc.

That’s stupid, there are enough people that don’t know how to use a computer, they are only just learning. So what do they do? Add a new layout. I hate the new Microsoft Word.

I wish I could get Windows 7…

I don’t even use paint on Vista anyway.

The MSPaint layout on Vista is much better than on 7.

I feel your pain, having to work with such an annoying Windows Paint. If you need any help, please contact us. We’ll give you anything you need.

How does Windows 7 (in general) stack up to Vista, anyway? People complain about Vista’s bugs, but on my two year old (I think) laptop it’s only as bad as XP.

Wow the Windows 7 one looks really really hard to use.

My comp came with word 2007, and jeez it’s ridiculously unuser-friendly. Why are they making these programs so much worse?

The only problem I have on Vista is things not responding.

Firefox is not responding, Microsoft word is not respondig, Adobe Flash Professional CS4 is not responding.

Gah.

Good point.

A while ago I couldn’t have a single day without Firefox saying it couldn’t respond. But besides that everything’s okay, though some other things occasionally don’t respond-not that I tend to use other things much.

I suppose things not being compatible is a pain too, but they have nearly made everything compatible for Vista. Now they release Windows 7 which nothing is compatible with.

But it’s comptabile with everything that vista has ever done, luckily. The drivers and the for the most part the apps work fine.
