I do remember

And then one if the lines wasn't painted all the way through and suddenly your whole image was Olive green

Is this a universal experience from the time period. How did it start. Nobody told me to do this. I just did.

I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!!

I used to do this with Kid Pix on DOS back in the day. It was like paint but with sound effects lol.

GET OUT OF MY HEAD

Hold on, hold on hear me out.....

Kid Pix on the Mac

Oh my, I'm not even 18 years old but i sooo did this lol

Wow, this is a moldy meme. Anyone go to the cool website?

I liked dragging a selection box on the desktop and seeing how thin of a line I could turn it into. When it was perfect the line would dissapear and just have one pixel on the top and bottom. It was also fun to draw the smallest possible box around random things on the desktop wallpaper. I did that with the windows 7 stock wallpaper a lot.

I remember in early middle school doing this incomputerlabe after finishing our work.

Sometimes the teacher would let us print it out 😁

It was always Oregon Trail or Carmen San Diego for me.

I'm only 18 and I remember.

My 5 year old has done this a couple of times as well - I just has to adjust my semi-crazy mouse speed to her. :) I even saved the pics.

Another thing I distinctly remember is watching my das defragmentating the drive. I know that I at the same time hated it because it meant that we could not play games, but it was also strangely mesmerizing...

Holy fuck, this is eerily accurate!

This was pretty much every computer class.

Also, does anyone remember this game (it was included in Windows 95)?

I remember drawing the Death Star and lots of TIE Fighters. One version of paint had this line tool that produced the hyperspace lines effect. Nowadays, I dabble with pixel art in Aseprite.

I still occasionally do this if I am on the phone with someone and need something to do with my hands that doesn't take much brain power or make any noise.

Another thing I loved doing was doing a single color fill, then zipping the mouse around with the free-form selection and deleting the selection.

For me, it was Kid Pix and Claris Works.

Yes, but for some reason I would only use straight lines.

Sell it. This looks like it's worth millions, lol

And now i think i was Picasso

'Twas a work of art!

Digital art at its simplest

Deluxe Paint 4 on the Amiga for the win

Wingdings was how I rolled.

It was always Oregon Trail or Carmen San Diego for me.

Something fun to do is scribble like that and look for shapes or objects within the mess and erease it so whatever you saw is clear to see

I'd draw a smiley face, select it, hold shift (iirc, might've been ctrl), and drag it around to create a "snake".

I'm not retarded, so no, I haven't.

I was doing actual art off-PC, the computer was for internet and gaming. MSPaint was freaking USELESS.
