Solved: Free Painting Program?
I really like to draw things on the computer, but all i have right now is Microsoft Paint that comes with Windows. I really want a better "Paint" type program with better tools, etc. There's always Paint Shop Pro, but that's really expensive.Does anyone know of any freeware that'll at least upgrade Paint a little bit?

Thanks!

Be strong, my weary wolf, turn around boldly.
Fly high, my baby bird, my angel, my only.

Well I guess this is solved. I downloaded Ultimate Paint: http://www.ultimatepaint.com

But if anyone uses anything better, feel free to tell me! I've got lotsa HD space...

Just remembered, hewee had posted a while back, a link to a legal free download of PaintShop Pro7. Sorry, I've lost the link, but a search at TSG or getting in touch with hewee might get it for you
