It's a cute little ship and a very nice drawing.
You might want to change text size to proper 14px and 10px (which is not the same as the 14 and 10 text size in Paint).
Also I would change the white on the superstructure to a very light shade of gray so it won't blend in with the background that much.

oke , what text size is should use then? (always confused about that).
And the light gray shade isn't how the ship is painted ,but i get what you mean. (maybe in the ''En Avant 1'')

As far as I know, for Paint it's 10.5 and 7.5. I mean "almost white but not quite" something like R:250, G:250, B:250

Much better but you need to remove anti-aliasing from the text

Now you say that; how can I do that with Windows Paint 7

I don't think it's possible with Win7 Paint. But I wouldn't know 'cause I don't use it.
