How to make a great picture on MSPaint

[Littoface]

Almost everyone (every Windows users, that is) has the program MSPaint automatically installed on their computers when they get the system. And so many people overlook it... but MSPaint can be a great little art program if you take a bit of time to learn it. Here's a little article that might be helpful in teaching some new tricks to mastering the program.http://www.associatedcontent.com/art...microsoft.html

this is such a fool question, peoples using coral draw, free hand, and photoshop and you are asking about ms- paint.

MsPaint is a very small program...only the novice uses it.

I hate the user interface of Paint , I prefer Fireworks or Photoshop , Paint is useless to me.

My two cents.

I wasn't asking anything, silly. ;P I was telling.
This was my own two cents, really, since not every one can afford some big program (and doesn't want to pirate it).

It works for people like http://griffling.deviantart.com/

That's very true. I've seen some incredible things done with dollz and icons, and other things that I can't even imagine doing.

Because of its simplicity and the fact that it has been bundled with every version of Windows to date, Paint is usually associated with the concept of a newbie or otherwise inexperienced or clueless user, and images and drawings of poor quality are usually labelled as made with Paint in a somewhat derogatory manner. In the past, there have been shareware Windows programs featuring graphics drawn with Paint, which were easy to recognize because of their rough outlines and flat coloring with no gradients or color smoothing, typical of Paint drawings made in a hurry, since those effects are not automated. Intentionally horrible images are also considered to be Paint creations, although the connotation is more lighthearted and humorous. Despite its simplicity, Paint is still widely used, especially for oekaki, paintmashes, and pixel art, since these forms of art require minimal resources. Also, being a relatively lightweight application, it's usually more suitable for minor retouching and simple drawings than more powerful applications.
