Yesterday we posted about a snazzy OS X-based painting app that could be considered the equivalent of MS Paint for Mac. Well, we decided it’d be a lot of fun to have a little contest to bring out the inner-artist in all of our readers!
Send in a drawing created ONLY with Paintbrush (a completely free download), and we’ll pick the two best ones. Those winners will each receive a 1-year subscription to Backblaze!
The contest goes now through this Friday, May 1, at 1pm MST.
How to Submit Your Drawing
To submit your drawing, simply post a comment here with a link to your full-resolution image (it can be hosted anywhere: Flickr, Photobucket, ImageShack, etc). Including a story with your photo will earn you brownie points. Also, you can enter as many times as you’d like.
NOTE: Keep this family friendly. Anything you wouldn’t show your 4-year-old niece will be removed and you’ll be disqualified.
Ta-daaaa!

I had almost forgotten how amazingly simple and fun the spray paint tool was in paint. I have been mac for years and forgotten the wonders of simplicity in paint. I hope to make some more stuff to post soon.

The second one is the best!

I asked my 6 year old to draw me a picture with Paintbrush so I could win something. This is what he drew. Funny (at least I thought so). I think it should win.

So here’s a version of Windows XP that I made up and a version of the Mac OS that I made up.

Wow, I expected more entries. Unfortunate =[
I expected more as well. I still may make more, who knows. I know the contest is over, but it was still fun.
