April 27, 2021įresh Paint was a Windows 8 app with a very comprehensive and realistic painting algorithm that, much like Paint 3D, was undermarketed and underappreciated by Microsoft internally. #smallstreamer #twitchcreative /hXeMBIlh31- Totes AmazePauls.

Inspired, of course, by made a mountain in #Paint3D plus bonus mountaineer. That said, imagine the creativity that could be unlocked if Microsoft gave their bundled apps a bit of love and attention. All of this comes in spite of the lack of basic tools like layering or grids, which in some ways adds to the challenge and charm of the toolset. Twitter users from across the internet have recently been sharing artwork built using MS Paint's brushes, with stunning results. Microsoft Paint itself has some surprisingly great tools for making higher-quality artwork. What the heck happened to the Groove Music Maker app anyway? Artists are showcasing the potential of MS Paint If Microsoft wants to lure creative types, though, it quite honestly needs to do more. Indeed, the Microsoft Store is getting a Sun Valley makeover, and the Mail and Calendar app will be replaced with the Outlook PWA at some point. Microsoft is working on replacements and improvements for some of these tools.

The provision of MS Paint and Paint 3D is only one example among many, many others, including the Photos app, the Microsoft Store itself, the Movies & TV app, Mail & Calendar, and others.

Microsoft often said that it feels like software should fade into the background, which is fine, but it shouldn't excuse shoddy quality or, well, abandonment of those apps.

The brutalist function-over-form design of Windows 10 isn't exactly stimulating. I wonder if some of the broader creative audience often seem to prefer the Mac workflow not just for its stability and quality, but also for the visual consistency of the Mac OS. However, it results in a bit of a cluttered experience, which is often cited to me as another reason why people choose Mac in some situations. Microsoft lets third parties do the heavy lifting in this area, which has served it well. There's also tools like Logic for creating music, and iMovie if you don't need a program as powerful as Final Cut.Ĭonversely, I'm not sure Windows has any first-party made Windows-only apps that I'd consider to be essential. My partner, for example, has to work on Apple products at university and finds Final Cut to be preferable to Adobe Premier for ease of use and superior stability. When it comes to Mac users, one thing that is often cited to me as a purchase argument is Final Cut Pro, which is an Apple-exclusive video editing tool that joins a suite of other Apple-exclusive programs that often hook people into Apple's ecosystem. I also frequently get into discussions with people who use competing products like Chromebooks or Macbooks.

Watch this touching documentary short directed by Josh Bogdan which tells how Lasko discovered an entire new artistic career well into his 80s. Approaching a century in age, Lasko is now having his work shown for the first time in an art exhibition and also has prints for sale online. Decades after his retirement his family introduced him to Microsoft Paint and he never looked back. Meet Hal Lasko, mostly known as Grandpa, a 97-year-old man who uses Microsoft Paint from Windows 95 to create artwork that has been described as “a collision of pointillism and 8-Bit art.” Lasko, who is legally blind, served in WWII drafting directional and weather maps for bombing raids and later worked as a typographer (back when everything is done by hand) for clients such as General Tire, Goodyear and The Cleveland Browns before retiring in the 1970s.
