Later this year, Microsoft will be launching a new Windows 10 update.

To see all the changes, visit here.

But what I’m most concerned about is the loss of some great childhood memories…

MS Paint.

“Microsoft Paint, a.k.a. MS Paint, is being deprecated.

Deprecation means that development of the software is ending, which typically happens not long before an application reaches the end of its life. So with MS Paint deprecated, Microsoft will likely remove it completely from Windows 10 in the near future.”

I know there’s so many free apps, online programs and advanced programs that are 100000X better in efficacy and quality compared to Paint…

But there was always something satisfying for me about zooming in and making cube designs, struggling to draw ANYTHING by means of a mouse, and really just colouring it all in then erasing it again because it’s better than whatever else it was you were supposed to be doing.

 

I made the above image with MS Paint. And if you feel so obliged, feel free to create some MS Paint art and share it too in the comments or on our Facebook post.

You’ll be missed MS Paint….

At least by me.
