Great. Now my customers are going to send me even worse art.

At least with layers support you can now extract the individual parts of the image.

What used to drive me nuts is when they send me over everything in one image and I couldn't separate the various components out.

Their clients will still manage to send them a 6MB bitmap somehow

Right click, rename, .doc to .zip. Extract and enjoy.

Wait I gotta try this!

I know this, but it's still stupid to have to do that step just to access a screenshot.

I don't think your average paint user knows what a layer is.
