Question Posted Saturday June 4 2005, 4:45 pm

How can I make a really cool background or layout WITHOUT adobe photoshop, or paintshop pro? All i have is the crappy paint that comes with our computer. I can't download new products because our computer is like 10 years old.

Well, you can make pretty cool backgrounds on paint. You can make stripes, circles, just about anything. If you have microsoft word, then there are shapes on that like hearts and stars and stuff, and you can copy and paste those on to paint. When you are done with making your background, go to www.photobucket.com and get a free trial there and you can upload your background there and then you can get the url to it so you can put it as your background. I hope I helped! -|-PRP-|-

Paint can be good... if you know how to use it properly. I used to use paint all the time before I got PSP, so I'm pretty good at it. One layout I love to do with paint is to make stripes. Just use the pen tool to make long vertical stripes. You can make them the same size, different sizes, anything you want! It's all up to you, and it looks pretty good, too.

Hey! It's unfortunate you don't have an advanced graphic program, but MS Paint (which you have) can be used. If you know how to change the colors (double click the colors on the tool pallet), then you can create something with more than, I think, 28 colors. It would take more time and hard work than on something more avdanced to create graphics, but yours wont be, shall I say, 'crappy'. I know you could make pixel-ish graphics very nicely on paint, because it is more basic and you can edit 'the little things' more nicely.
Hope I helped, and deffinately feel free to email me with any more questions.
