Microsoft Paint

Microsoft Paint, MSPaint, or simply Paint, is an image editing tool included in every Windows package.
It is the most common tool used by comic makers, due to the fact that it is accessible via any Windows operating system. Paint is considered to be the most commonly used and easiest tool for spriting.
Microsoft has generally invested little effort into the application over the years, leaving the program virtually identical from Windows 98 to Vista. Windows 7, however, features a new version of the application designed to fit the now commonplace Ribbon interface first seen in Microsoft Word 2007.
