I noticed that Windows 7 has added and changed things on the Paint application. The Windows 7 version of paint makes use of the Ribbon UI. It also features "artistic" brushes composed of varying shades of gray and some transparency that give a more realistic result. To add to the realism, the oil and watercolor brushes can only paint for a small distance before the user must re-click. This gives the illusion that the paint brush has run out of paint. It also has anti-aliased shapes, which can be resized freely until they are rasterised when another tool is selected. This version supports viewing (but not saving) transparent PNG and ICO file formats and saves in the PNG file format by default. Microsoft now gives you the option to make any shape you just drew bigger or smaller after drawing it. I personally hope that there's an option to turn off the realisticness of the user having to click off then back on to paint.
