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.

@redenchilada MS Paint does not run on my platform, am I excluded from this event?
-
@redenchilada teehee. Mines easy.
-
@redenchilada I don't have or want access to MS Paint.
-
@omni If on linux, Tuxpaint is pretty much just as bad. ;)
-
@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.
-
@techdisk42 What about paint.net, does that count as paint?
-
@lilytheamazingfaintingpony i share this sentiment.
-
@techdisk42 I guess paint.net is cheating since it is actually capable of doing a great deal in the right hands.
-
@lilytheamazingfaintingpony i guess... i used it to create my avatar. and it does layers.
-
@lilytheamazingfaintingpony I guess I'd rather use Kolourpaint then :P
-
@toksyuryel @omni As long as you're not doing anything that Paint can't do...
-
@redenchilada Is inkscape acceptable?
-
@techdisk42 Give me Paint '98, or give me death.
-
@redenchilada So no layers? But we can import the original avatars and paint over, as long as we cover everything up?
-
@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.
-
@bitshift I know. But I wanna know if it's acceptable :P
-
@lilytheamazingfaintingpony No layers, only aliased brushes. And no cheating and tracing. (Looking bad is the whole point!)
-
@redenchilada Sounds fun. When do you think this event should take place?
-
@redenchilada Like so? (Just barely within the 30 minutes, self-imposed.) http://ur1.ca/9a6cc

@toksyuryel Oh yes.
-
@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).
-
@redenchilada I'll be there. No promises about using trackpad :p
