Windows crashing paint on purpose?
Okay, I don't know if this has happened to anyone else, but when I'm using windows Vista and save an image in paint, if I try to use the line tool Paint crashes for some reason! And it happens to BOTH of my parent's laptops! And once paint restarts, windows opens help and support nagging me to update! Is this a glitch, or is Windows doing this on purpose???

cool story bro
did you crop the drawing space to reduce file size?
no, I didn't. I think this happens whenever I save an image (probably .png) while the line tool is selected. Just checked, and yeah, it happens when I meet these conditions. If anyone else has Vista, try saving a PNG image while line is selected, and draw a line after the dialouge closes to see what I'm talking about.

The reasons why:
1. Microsoft is EVIL.
2. Vista is unbelievebly rubbish.
The solutions:
1. Get NASA to maroon Bill Gates on the moon.
2. Get Windows 7, or get a Mac.
