Can anyone explain what the hell Microsoft did to paint?

Yes paint

Before Photoshop i learned paint on my first desktop on Windows 98

There were more features, i recall transparency & overlaying 2 different images

I also recall a free rotating 360 degree tool

I stopped using paint since xp tho

I recently used & you basically can not do anything remotely creative

Why down grade a software that was already there?
>>
The new Paint has all of that still

I don't remember Paint ever having such feature. I thought you meant transparent cutting. And the rotation tool has always been by 90 degrees.
You can download the classic Paint and find out yourself.

Now shut the fuck up.

>>55132139
Not XP for sure, I'm installing 98 to show you now that there wasn't as many features as you think
>>
>>55131878
There was no free rotating 360 degree tool in paint in any version. Are you thinking about Paint.Net?
>>
Why does Windows 98 take longer to install than a modern OS lol
>>
>>55131878
Paint shop pro 6.0 baby!

Paint.exe is standalone and will run on any version of Windows back to 98. So if you want, you could download an XP ISO nd just cop paint.exe off of it. It does not have these features though. You must've used paint.et

I already tried running Windows 98 Paint natively on Windows 10, it crashes.

The only rotation option is the 90 degrees one.

ok you proved me wrong i was probably using a different software that was called paint and looked like paint but had extra features

maybe idk but but i don't remember downloading anything back then, i also just remember having it on my pc

this must be the most retarded thread of the day

>>55132587
Not joking btw, here's the entry:

4: vs guy that thought old paint had cool features
June 17 2016
breakdown:
Guy makes thread asking what the hell Microsoft did to paint
He claims there were more features like transparency (as in semitransparency) and free rotation
Another guy hates how OP uses the return key twice at the end of each line, claims it's reddit tier
I tell OP that these features never existed
He claims to remember it from his childhood
I set out to prove him wrong
I install Windows 98 SE on VMWare on STRONGRIG
From BEDRIG's VMWare client on boot up the Windows 98 install
I use ShareX to record a webm of the only transparency available (based on second color chosen)
I also post the rotation options (locked to 90 degree intervals)
The guy admits defeat
I claim victory with I'm always right image

>>55132799
The fact that you feel the necessity to log pointless internet conversasions

>There were more features
Nope, there wasn't.
>>
>>55132813
Good on you, I guess.
>>
>>55131878
>transparency
not alpha, and not to file (even when saving as gif), but you could treat a color as transparent when dragging shit around or copying+pasting (and you can still do that
>free rotate tool
nope

Paint has gotten worse, but your memory is fucking ass.

Hate to break it to you, but logging your victories from discussion on this site with a stranger and getting satisfaction out of that doesn't make you look like a victor.

By which authority? The internet police? Your mother when discussing the same shit again?
Do you jerk off to it? Is this the best thing that happens to you during the whole week?

I totally did that with my first thread ever, asking for good Skyrim mods, because it got over 300 replies that I couldn't bother to read. Had that shit saved while I procrastinated playing it and ended up reading it 2 years later when I finally did it.

And it's not like I do this very often, only really decisive wins make it in.

>OMG probably probably was this available on windows 98 ??? ..

Definitely. It was where I first used it, and I've been using it ever since for small tasks.

It's as lightweight and easy to use as Paint, just a fuckload more powerful. You can manually edit a GIF palette entry in it, it's crazy the amount of shit it can do.
