- perryizgr8 6y agoPreview annotations don't begin to scratch the surface of what paint can do. Look what some people can do in MS paint: https://www.techeblog.com/amazing-spider-man-ms-paint-drawing/ https://www.techeblog.com/amazing-spider-man-ms-paint-drawin... Most of us can't, but paint has all the tools, which is very helpful in many situations.
- BlueTemplar 6y agoIt's IMHO either too simple or too complicated. On Windows I prefer either ShareX or Paint.Net
- jrochkind1 6y agoIt can sort of hackily fill some extremely extremely basic functions (I know cause I do it too), but even that is pretty hacky, like how do you create a new blank document 800px by 600px to start painting on?
- bobbylarrybobby 6y agoYou can’t really start with a blank canvas and fill it in. You can only edit an existing image. (Yes, if you can create an all white JPEG you’ve more or less reinvented paint.)
