pyrochild Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 That article hardly looks reputable. Microsoft has always acknowledged that Paint.NET with one day replace the current 'Paint' application in Windows. Really? That's news to me! "with one day"? riiiiight... the article just lost another 50 points... ambigram signature by Kemaru [i write plugins and stuff] If you like a post, upvote it!

screenmutt Posted July 18, 2007 Author Share Posted July 18, 2007 Still I've found this on several sites. But when I had time to post it this is the only one I could find. Also, this is just an archive of another site (which I again can't find). But anyway, the idea is extremely disturbing Design can be art. Design can be aesthetics. Design is so simple.

Yata Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I agree with Pyro. This article looks less than believable.

sagedavis Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 I could have sworn that the creator of PDN (Rick?) worked for Microsoft (or what you call "the beast")... and had already mentioned that "anti anything" posts shouldn't take place on the board. Rick would actually have to give Microsoft permission to use his program, which, I don't think he will. Plus, if Microsoft wants a different Paint program than the one that they have, they can always um, build one... I mean, come on, they built an entire operating system, one paint program isn't going to be that difficult. Sage When in doubt, Try it out. I made this sig file using http://www.anim8or.com and making all of the textures with http://www.getpaint.net I love freeware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spike 121 Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 i agree with sage, they would just get a team to put one together, not license out a third party program to include in their os  "No. Dreaming is illegal."~Pyrochild Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoltBait Posted July 18, 2007 Share Posted July 18, 2007 BTW, if Microsoft lawyers are anything like the Intel lawyers I've delt with... They would never risk using "open" source code.
