About

Paint (sometimes called Microsoft Paint or MS Paint) is a graphics painting program developed by Microsoft. It has been included in all versions of the Microsoft Windows operating system from version 1.0 (as Paintbrush).[1] Its simplicity of usage and the lack of advanced image manipulation features made the art created on the program distinct due to its amateurishness and lack of detail. Due to its popularity, Paint has been the vehicle for the creation of numerous memes.

Deprecation and Resuscitation

On July 24th, 2017, Microsoft announced that MS Paint would be "deprecated," meaning “not in active development and might be removed in future releases," in the upcoming Windows 10 Update.[2] To many, this signaled that Microsoft was killing off MS Paint.[3][4] Several threads in subreddits mourned the news by creating subreddit-themed images in MS Paint.[6][7][8] Several popular posts on /r/dankmemes that day referenced the death of MS Paint, many of which were made in tribute (examples shown below).

However, the outpouring of support for MS Paint led Microsoft to clarify the following day that MS Paint would now be available in the Windows Store.[5]

Rage Faces

Rage Faces are the main components of a series of amateur-made comics, known as Rage Comics. The faces, portraying different different emotions and situations, have been, for the most part, created with minimal attention to detail and thus must have been drawn in MS Paint or related software.

Stoner Comics

Similar to rage comics, Stoner Comics is a series of amateur-made comics, but instead of portraying various situations and occurrences, they portray drug-related stories.
