How do I re-get Windows Paint?!

Post by Shroom Man 777 »

My comp somehow lost MS Paint, so I can't doodle. I want to doodle. I want to get Paint back. What do I do? Can someone link me to somewhere where I could reinstall it? Can someone link me to something even better?

If you just lost it, you should consider that your computer has caught something.

You can do everything that paint does with The Gimp but It does take a while to learn how to use it. If you choose to use it, I reccomend this site for some tutorials that go beyond the extremely basic ones on their main page. Ofc if you don't want a big ass program and want to kiss (keep it simple stupid) then The Shadow's is probably the best around.
