I can still easily picture some of the patterns in my head, like the 3d ball one and the pie crust lattice one. https://ia601607.us.archive.org/11/items/mac_Paint_2/00_screenshot.png https://ia601607.us.archive.org/11/items/mac_Paint_2/00_scre... Also, as a fairly young kid using MacPaint, I never really understood that the icon for the fill/paint can tool literally represented paint being poured out of a can; it always just looked like a unique, sort of abstract cursor shape to me. It wasn't until decades later using Pixelmator with its more photo-realistic tool icon (with the paint pouring out the opposite side) that I connected the dots on why the fill tool looks the way it does. It does give me sympathy for younger folks during the period of time when "Save" was still commonly represented by a floppy disk.
