  1. Some day I want to have an avatar swap day. Everyone is assigned a person and must redraw their avatar in MS Paint within thirty minutes. The receiving person must use the picture they get as an avatar for twenty-four hours.

    1. @redenchilada MS Paint does not run on my platform, am I excluded from this event?

      1. @omni If on linux, Tuxpaint is pretty much just as bad. ;)

        1. @lilytheamazingfaintingpony I guess I'd rather use Kolourpaint then :P

    3. @redenchilada I don't have or want access to MS Paint.

      1. @toksyuryel @omni As long as you're not doing anything that Paint can't do...

        1. @redenchilada Is inkscape acceptable?

          Monday, 21-May-12 16:43:44 UTC from web
          1. @toksyuryel Inkscape is not even remotely a similar thing to MS Paint. Even just scratching the surface, there's raster vs. vector, and few features vs. many features.

            1. @bitshift I know. But I wanna know if it's acceptable :P

        2. @redenchilada So no layers? But we can import the original avatars and paint over, as long as we cover everything up?

          1. @lilytheamazingfaintingpony No layers, only aliased brushes. And no cheating and tracing. (Looking bad is the whole point!)

            1. @redenchilada Sounds fun. When do you think this event should take place?

              Monday, 21-May-12 16:50:25 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
              1. @lilytheamazingfaintingpony Hmmm... Probably arrange it Friday, have everyone do it on Saturday (as long as they do it in 30 minutes I don't care when).

                1. @redenchilada I'll be there. No promises about using trackpad :p

    4. @redenchilada And does it have to be the version of MS paint that comes with the version of windows you are using now? example: MS paint on Windows 7 is die in a fire worthy, while MS paint on XP is pixel art worthy.

      1. @techdisk42 What about paint.net, does that count as paint?

        Monday, 21-May-12 16:29:56 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
        1. @lilytheamazingfaintingpony i share this sentiment.

          Monday, 21-May-12 16:30:51 UTC from web
          1. @techdisk42 I guess paint.net is cheating since it is actually capable of doing a great deal in the right hands.

            Monday, 21-May-12 16:33:21 UTC from StatusNet Desktop
            1. @lilytheamazingfaintingpony i guess... i used it to create my avatar. and it does layers.

      2. @techdisk42 Give me Paint '98, or give me death.

    5. @redenchilada Like so? (Just barely within the 30 minutes, self-imposed.) http://ur1.ca/9a6cc

      1. @bitshift My god it's hideous.

        1. @toksyuryel Oh yes.
