This app is very accurate to the original version on the old computers and the themes are a blast. This is a must have if you want to play around with drawing… although there is one problem: I can’t seem to change the language.

I have spent a long time searching for the Paint software of Windows system that can run on Mac systems. That's awesome! I hope this software update and add the function of proportionally adjusting the pixel size of images.

This app is great! Just one question though, How do I add more colors?

Developer Response
Hi Reid Carroll,Thank you for the compliment. I’m happy you’re enjoying Paint 98 Desktop. To answer your question:Paint 98 already supports millions of colors. You can add more by going to: Colors > Edit Colors > Define Custom Colors, then saving them to the palette.

Awesome replica of Windows Paint on Mac. Works exactly the same! Love it!

- Relive the Windows XP era. Switch to the new Windows XP theme for authentic XP visuals (styles + icons + fonts + the XP save/exclamation sound) with modern stability. - Various minor usability tweaks and stability fixes.
