To anyone reading, don't feel intimidated. Doing one of these takes less time than an episode of whatever your chosen weekly show is, and no matter what it's gonna come out good! The two pictures I've submitted are literally the first two times I've used MSPaint in over a decade. Just give it a shot and surprise yourself!

I'd like to see less people saying how they can't and more people showing what they did. I believe in you. Bob believes in you. Don't let Bob down.

What version of mspaint are you using that has transparent brush strokes?

edit: oh apparently windows 7 has that. Neat!

Technically Im on 10 but you can make works of art off of windows 95. There is no floor to quality if you just try your best!

i do love this thread. my problem is that i can never really participate with a bob ross episode because his show is so soothing that i doze off watching it.

i am not saying that as a bad thing; the blissful slumbers encouraged by bob ross is one of the few joys i have left in this world.

We have 5- and 2-year-old daughters and they just LOVE watching Bob Ross before bed. I wish there were more on Netflix, because we've gone through all the ones on there like 4 times, but I hadn't thought to look on Youtube.

Alrighty. I've never tried to make a youtube before, but I have thought about trying to make an mspaint with Bob Ross before. Here's my very first attempt at making a video. it's meant to go along with:

at 3/4 speed. since i'm super dumb at making videos, i don't have any cool music* or commentary to go with it. any help in this regard would be appreciated.

You can skip ahead about 40 seconds into this, like i said, i have no idea how to edit this better

Hey, I'd say it's not bad. I know it can be overwhelming, Bob Ross goes FAST. you can use youtube settings to slow down videos so that it's a little easier to follow along

It's definitely also easier to work with a smaller canvas. I do my paintings by opening YouTube and MSPaint on both halves of one single screen. That makes for a canvas that's juuuuust the right size for me. You should maybe try that with your next one.

you used to only be able to find bob ross reuploaded by eastern european accounts in youtube

until twitch did that insanely popular bob ross stream where they pumped every single episode for like a week.

after that one of the official bob ross channels on youtube started uploading every single day for a couple months. i haven’t looked in a while but i’d be surprised if they’re gone

I have a helpful link to the Bob Ross channel in the OP! They have every episode from seasons 1 through 31, that's roughly 168 hours of painting fun! :eng101:

I don't need to know anything about virii! My CUSTOM PROGRAM keeps me protected! It's not like they'll try to come in through the Internet or something!
My wife uses a Chromebook, so there was no mspaint, so to be fair we both used Sketchpad on Chrome. We got annoyed about half way through so we quit before the foreground bushes, and I undid my middle-distance trees because they made it worse.

And my wife's one, she got pretty angry because the Chromebook kept scrolling the image away instead of drawing on it, and sketchpad kept freezing (mine did too, but reloading on my computer was less annoying).

Forgot to mention that mine was done with a trackpad too. So any complaints that I'm supposed to only use mspaint can suck it, using a trackpad is plenty enough handicap. :colbert:
