And then one if the lines wasn’t painted all the way through and suddenly your whole image was Olive green
Then, that older cousin teaches you about “CTRL + Z”, which you think you also had to press the + key for it to work
The horror!
Is this a universal experience from the time period. How did it start. Nobody told me to do this. I just did.
It’s the millennial equivalent of just being handed a box of crayons and being told to go nuts. It’s baked into our DNA.
I think I remember my computer class teacher saying something about it to my classmates and I.
I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE!!!
Far from it my dude. =)

GET OUT OF MY HEAD
I used to do this with Kid Pix on DOS back in the day. It was like paint but with sound effects lol.
I just liked to spam the dynamite tool (I think it was?) whichever one put the funny explosion effect on the screen.
You could also freeze the explosion midway through for a cool swirly effect.
I liked to switch the language to Spanish and do some fire remixes with the alphabet tool.
My dude I haven’t heard of kidpix in like 14years the nostalgia’s real
Hold on, hold on hear me out…
Kid Pix on the Mac
Kaboom-boom!
Oh my, I’m not even 18 years old but i sooo did this lol
Wow, this is a moldy meme. Anyone go to the cool website?
I’m only 18 and I remember.
On the school computers this was one of the only fun things we could do.
Windows XP?
Yup. XP was legendary.
I remember in early middle school doing this incomputerlabe after finishing our work.
Sometimes the teacher would let us print it out 😁
It was always Oregon Trail or Carmen San Diego for me.
Holy fuck, this is eerily accurate!
I liked dragging a selection box on the desktop and seeing how thin of a line I could turn it into. When it was perfect the line would dissapear and just have one pixel on the top and bottom. It was also fun to draw the smallest possible box around random things on the desktop wallpaper. I did that with the windows 7 stock wallpaper a lot.
I still do this
This was pretty much every computer class.
Another thing I loved doing was doing a single color fill, then zipping the mouse around with the free-form selection and deleting the selection.
