Description Whee~
Though I no longer use MSPaint for much except the occasional pixel art, I thought I'd share with you some of the tricks of the trade. Whew, I wish I'd known some of these before I got my tablet and Corel Painter Essentials. Well, I hope it helps!

ALSO - if you make anything using these tricks... I WANNA SEE! LINK ME! 8D

MSPaint (c) Microsoft?
Tutorial (c) me, ~MicrosuedeMouse

PS: Sorry it's so big though...
PPS: I'm soooo sorry about the spelling mistakes

^^ great ! That's perfect as a reference !

I knew about all of these except number 8 !

One thing I don't know but I never search too much about it : picking a color holding ctrl changes the erm "back" color but I don't know what it is useful for ...

Can this work on Windows 7 paint?

MicrosuedeMouse In reply to Booboohtf55 [2011-04-01 02:27:56 +0000 UTC]

At the moment I'm not sure! I just got Windows 7 and find the new paint pretty frustrating, honestly; so I'm afraid I don't have an answer for you. It's worth trying, though.

NicoleHull In reply to xxhot-stuffxx [2010-01-25 07:56:45 +0000 UTC]

for vista, it goes up to 10 times

MicrosuedeMouse In reply to xxhot-stuffxx [2009-09-08 02:31:17 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, but that's a pretty basic shortcut. Since most people know about the undo function, I opted to leave that one out.
But thanks! Thanks for the fave, too
