Microsoft is discontinuing MS Paint.

[LucasPrime1984]

I have to agree that this is a sad move on Microsoft's part, as part of Paint's infamy was its widespread distribution. Many kids grew up with Paint (Myself included.) In fact, I still use Paint occasionally for pixel art.

I will miss the original Paint, and despite the criticism, I know I'm not the only one.

Personally, I learned to move on and use dedicated programs, but Paint will have a place in my childhood, and my heart.
