you can see where you edited it to the right of the red line.

I'm pretty sure that's paint's crappy JPEG encoding.

No, if you look closer you see the line surrounding the "Disk Usage 1337Mb", it's not like that anywhere else on the image.

I know and recognize what you're talking about, but I don't agree with your reasoning for its existence.

It's because mspaint is crappy at encoding JPEG's.  Here's another example.  I simply painted the background gray and made a red rectangle and saved it as a JPEG:



As you can see, the strange coloring around the line exists here too.

Yep.  Alternatively, you can sometimes tell it's edited by the same affects appearing ON the letters and/or the coloring varying on the letters/suspected area very slightly.  These are just sorts of distortions that happen in the JPEG encoding.  I haven't studied it much, but I've noticed it's there with MSPaint.

My RMA # was 13337. Do I win?

Anyhow, save it as a png, and you win.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

You do win!

MSPaint's PNG encoder is awful too.  It makes them much larger than they could be if they were encoded using another application (IE Photoshop).  I will admit they look a lot nicer than their JPEG images, that's for sure...

That's what I was goin' for. I could care less about size, I'm on cable with a ton of hosting space (<3 xar) and don't care if 56kers can't see images that fast. :)

Haha.  How about we encode them on a non-shitty program and then everyone's happy? :D

MS Paint's encoding sucks period. Photoshop is for the win.

Yeah, its GIF encoding sucks balls too.  I don't think you can encode a bitmap incorrectly without fucking up the colors, so I guess it does that correctly!

Agreed, though.  Photoshop FTW!

mspaint takes ~5 seconds to start it, paste the image, save it as a png, and close it.

Photoshop takes 5 seconds alone to start.

I'll stick with import, thank you. :)

More like two minutes if you're like me and have a lot of added on parts for it. -__-
