true this has been posted many times in the foundry along with several other movies. still amazing how people can spend so much time with paint.

guy? you mean computer program that scans and calculates the color gradients and reproduces them with MSPaint? The only thing impressive about this is the number of people who think it's a real artist. Yes you can see the mouse moving.... duh.

that could be it, but as you look good you can see huge differce (like the background) so i do think this is really made with ms paint, in about 4 hours of painting

AND SO DO YOU

Seriously though, I love those responses. Even with a vid like this people find something negative to say. I think it's great.

If you can make a map that looks good enough, I doubt they will ask you if you used MS Paint, and if you make a map that's ugly enough, it wont matter if you used Photoshop.

More importantly however, who is going to make a CCMap out of the Mona Lisa?
