While visiting my family in Atlanta from June 15th to June 19th I had fun teaching my grandson how to use Paint.net and MS Paint on an extra laptop I took with me and gave to him.

He's an avid gamer, and he was delighted to learn he could make screen grabs from video games and modify them with the two applications.

For example, we started with this screen grab from the trailer for Final Fantasy XIV —



— and turned it into this.



I was in granddaddy heaven watching this talented 10 year old enjoy the same sort of creative endeavors I spend hours doing for projects like the illustrations for The Wishbone Express and The Hero Experience.
