Well as I bought a new computer with Windows 7, I've camed agross the same proplem that so many others in these circles, the paint in it sucks. Acutally it's unworkable for my style of drawing.
I still have my older comp with vista but I really would like to use my new comp on shipbucket drawing as well. So does anyone have any link where I could DL the Vista's paint? I already have found and downloaded XP:s Paint which is adequate but I really would like to have Vista's paint as it IMO is the best tool for shipbucket work.

Yeah well while trying to search from internet for the Vista Paint, everybody said the same...and it made me wanna go somehwere and give a proper "wind-up" of what I think of it. I want Vista Paint, not someone to try and tell me that I don't need it. I know what I want and need.

My proplem with Paint 7 is the vector-type lines. It doesen't suite for my drawing style as the normal pixel-line in older Paint's are the most used tool for me. If I would like to draw with vectors, I use AutoCad or similar drawing tools.

But anyways, thanks Mitch for advance already from the Vista Paint.

Have you tried http://www.oldversion.com/?

I've used that for getting hold of obscure software before...

If i am correct, this should be it.
Just to warn you it contains all other object aswell (notepad, calculator, etc etc)
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=99WRDYWI
If it isnt that one, then this one should be it:
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=IHJSTETR

And for a last try, just try out W7 paint once more. It aint bad, and the issue you provided can be fixed.
There are multiple options (a lot) in it. Plus if you want i can edit out your W7 vista, so it works 100% correct.
( i can mod it)

If you need anything for W7, just ask.
I got all copies, and everything is seperate.

After you draw a line hit enter. That exits the adjust line feature.

It doesen't matter. It mess ups my drawing process so much that it makes the whole thing impossible. I rather use the old XP paint even if it means going back in time basicly.

<Shrugs>

Or you could adapt to a more modern and capable program, such as Paint.NET or The Gimp (both are free, and are open, or semi-open source). There is something to be said for progress, and not being stuck using a program that is a decade old.

I do understand your frustration (I myself am a member of the WordPerfect forever club), but sometimes the rest of the world moves on.

Your call.

Now guys I don't know why you keep insisting on me to adopt some other programs. I'm asking about Vista's Paint, simple as that. Trust me, I've tested quite a few drawing programs including Paint.net and photoshop and came into conclusion that Vista's Paint is the best program for me, for my style of drawing...

It's like I'm saying that I want a normal pencill as the new pen I have is some fancy ballpoint pen...you cannot to pencil art with ballpoints..
