![]() This also allows Paint to use transparent backgrounds. ![]() The Windows 98, Windows 2000 and Windows Me versions of Paint can save images in JPEG, GIF and PNG formats if the necessary Microsoft graphics filters are installed, usually by another Microsoft application such as Microsoft Office or Microsoft PhotoDraw. This functionality worked correctly only if the color depth of images was 16-bits per pixel (bpp) or higher (65,536 (64k) colors ) and was removed from later versions. Microsoft shipped an updated version of Paint with Windows 95 and Windows NT 4.0, which allowed saving and loading a custom set of color wells as color palette files ( *.pal) using Save colors and Get colors functions from the Colors menu. This version was later superseded by Paintbrush in Windows 3.0, with a redesigned user interface, color support and support for the BMP and PCX file formats. It was a licensed version of ZSoft Corporation‘s PC Paintbrush, and supported only 1-bit monochrome graphics under a proprietary “MSP” format. The first version of Paint was introduced with the first version of Windows, Windows 1.0, in November 1985.
