D'aww,people standing up for Paint <3 it makes me all warm and fuzzy inside.
but srsly,paint is just like any other art program,the onliest difference is that on other programs you get 'discounts' aka special effects and layers. If you cant do stuff the simple way,why are you so confident that you'll get it right with stuff like PS?
Thats just like not knowing how to turn on a PC,but still wanting to become a programmer or something
plus you can always get the fancy programs cracked/hacked and whatever.This is the internet dear,everything possible
