Yes. Note also exhibit C: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zQJVM-R3PxY]LOOM[/url]. The fabric metaphor is quite well-developed. Clearly string theory is a modern attempt at renewal. (Physicists! Why do they always take things so literally?)

MS Paint was completely redesigned for Windows 7, as were Solitaire and Minesweeper. Personally, I still long for Windows 3.x's PaintBrush, which was actually [i]slightly[/i] more featureful than Paint—until the latter finally got decent save formats in XP. (Although they also removed some—the 95 version lets you save in PCX, iirc.)

In Lilitika it would be "zo Torko." I think that's more dramatic, and more easily mistaken for Zorro, which is basically what you already are, so everyone wins.

Not in Seven and later; they added a crop button for the selection tool. Now the only thing that's agonizing is doing the math in your head to get a desired aspect ratio. Once again, technology that offloads responsibility for failure onto the user reigns supreme.

In principle, MS Paint is adequate for mapping—all one truly needs is the ability to set RGB values of pixels individually, and the rest is one form or another of laziness. (cue[plus]or do i mean queue[/plus] jokes about butterflies, magnets, xkcd being funny, and so forth) That doesn't mean it won't be anguish or yield hideous results, though.
