Cool...I stumbled upon a "silk-screening" effect...another use for MS Paint's natural tendency to consider the color white a non-value. Now I can colorize black/white doodles by pasting them on top of flat color panels. At first I was just trying to eliminate stray black dots that were artifacts of the process that created the pattern. Now, I'm realizing that this can be done deliberately to replace white (or black, inverse) with a flat color. Not as fancy as swapping colors for gradients, or the other stuff I used to do with PSP or Adobe, but I'm having fun with the simplicity of Paint.

Now that I think about it, I could swap a black or white value for a gradient, or whatever, if I pasted it on top of one.

Actually, I was laid up after back surgery years ago, and couldn't do much, so I nuttsed around with an outdated Windows 3.1 computer donated to me. I couldn't do much, but I learned a lot about paintbrush. It became a hobby, and I still like to mess around with it.

paint.net is better than paintbrush, and way light. has a good bit more utility, but doesn't require a shit ton of photoshop skillz to use it. and...it's free.
