[QUOTE="Kaioshoryuken1, post: 1355571, member: 229669"] Being a switcher, I grew accustomed to using Microsoft Paint over the years in addition to other picture software, because it was quick and easy. I didn't have to sort through menus to do what I wanted, and it worked out great for me. I just got my Macbook Pro about a month ago, running Lion 10.7.2. I've already replaced Gimp - that was easy because they make a Mac version, but Paint is the only program I haven't able to completely replace. [B]I want to be able to use the "new" MS Paint software that comes with Windows Vista and 7 on my Mac.[/B] I'm well aware of Photoshop and all the other alternatives, and in doing research, I realized I DO NOT want to have a similar program doing these things, I want the SAME one I used to have and love. Anyone have any ways of accomplishing this? I found the old version from XP and prior and was able to get it running with Wineskin... but the options on there aren't good enough for me D: and I can't find the new version. If I have to pay for it, I don't care, that's fine. As long as it works, I'm happy. I'm also NOT going to install Parallels or use Boot Camp because I'd feel very dirty installing Windows on my Mac. [B]PLEASE, please please! Do NOT link me to alternative programs. I know they're out there, don't want them. Thanks.[/B] [/QUOTE]
