Not sure if these drawings in MS Paint were done with a standard mouse, but they are definitely very cool.
Wish Microsoft devotes some more resources to improve their Paint program which has remained more or less the same since Windows 3.1 days when it was known as Paintbrush. Gimp and Paint.net are also popular alternatives to MS Paint with better interface and tons of advanced image editing features.

Look at how long it took to make that car poster that probly took 8 or 9 howers. If you are tring to sell a product in to days markit you dont have 8 or 9 howers. you have 2 or 3 howers Thats why photoshop is needed.
A nuther good reson why you need PS is that poster of the car can only be used on web be couse of its size/resalution.
and for microsoft thay haveent realy redun much of thare UI sens Win 95. and its clomsy and will not do what graphic arts need.
By this post I can see you are not a graphic desiner.

I think you crazy... MS Paint lacks SO much functionality that you can't do much with it.
Have you ever used a graphic suite before?
Anywayz... I totally disagree with this article.

PhotoShop in the Adobe CS2 Suite can fix 'bad' spots in a photo in addition to many more things it can do that MS Paint can't. Also, PhotoShop can save your pic in multiple formats... MS Paint can't. Into PhotoShop, you can scan photo prints and drawings. MS Paint can't.
You would have to either be a fool or a very inexperienced person to think that MS Paint can, in any way, compare to PhotoShop or CorelDRAW.
