I can't remember that is was debated and are astonished due to what has been published three days ago in several media. Just search for "schneiderman net neutrality":
Today in a press conference, New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman elaborated on his office’s efforts to investigate the FCC’s flood of fake anti-net neutrality comments while calling for a delay of the agency’s vital net neutrality vote until the source of the fraudulent comments is identified.

Print+AltGr, Ctrl+V, snip out, Ctrl+V in the next paint window and so on...
So... does anyone happen to have worked with some "drawing" stuff within C#?
Paint is annoying me and i just thought about coding a bit instead of doing this unnecessary work in 2 paint windows 
I have no clue if there are any Frameworks or so available to do specific things like drawing bars and connecting them or so.
Any experiences or tutorials you guys ran through to get the job done and have you ever done such things?

If all you are trying to do is capture a small part of the screen, ALT+PrintScreen catches the active window, and WINKEY+SHIFT+S lets you select a rectangular portion of the screen and copies it to the clipboard.
There are also many "snapshot" apps which capture the screen (or active window) to a file automatically (I have used Corel ScreenCap before (but only because it came free with one of the many versions of PaintShop Pro I have bought from them).
I know that PaintShop Pro X9 has a scripting language which might make it easy to automate your tasks (depending on what they are, exactly).
Reinventing the graphics package wheel is a big job for small tasks!

Wow Griff! I didden know the rect grab thing, always used the slightly annoying snipping tool.
A small step for humanity, a giant leap for me.

First of all Thanks at @OriginalGriff @Rage @User-12818622
for your ideas and words 
It's basically a little bit more complicated, the alt print stuff is waht i currently do instead of being able to create graphics from code. But i don't want to make a programming question out of that here, the rules stay! Therefore i just wanted a bit of ideas how you have or do cope with such requirements.
Just as short info, what i actually would need to do is take datasettype 1 and transfer it to a rectangle according to several parameters, then datasettype 2 to draw a line between two datasettype 1 objects and so on. Think of it like a Gantt chart but without the gantt'ish parts like day displays or so

What Griff said (especially the "do not reinvent the wheel part", this is a time pit as soon as graphical stuff is involved) + I recommend Screenpresso if you'd go the application way, very good piece of software.

Sounds like the winforms drawing2d can handle what you need.
I was in a similar situation to you and ended up doing my own line drawings - with 2d you can draw a rectangles & other shapes filled or outline only so it's effectively the same as you need
There's some libraries out there, but unless you need really advanced rendering/shaded 3-d then not necessary and you'd have to invest a lot of time learning just to do simple pics. (im 2d you can do the 3-d simulated, i.e. draw a cube by drawing 4 rectangles (if joined properly the other 2 faces will already be there.)
Find the most basic tutorials - how to draw a box, how to draw a circle, how to rotate the box..., once you have that it's all the same (different shapes, same basic method patterns) - takes at most a few days and a bit of googling to pick it up.

Some of my website-owning friends worry the hosting cost might get higher if they start to get more visitors. As they have to naturally step up the bandwidth & resources in server.
Does this make any sense? The more popular a site becomes, wouldn't it naturally lead to better ad-revenue ? What are the things to watch out here?
Assume their sites completely depends on the Ad money & they don't offer any other direct service, products to the visitors. Like for example, it's a site that showcases popular videos of the web.
Will one be able to meet up the hosting cost with advertisement money generated by the site?
(I know there are various models- like pay per view, pay per clicks, order completion etc, but just asking by an average stats. Assume you've just hosted Google ads)
The possibility of a site popularity making negative impact on revenue might include these factors:
1. The site exposes more of WebAPIs than visible page content with ads.
(Basically you are hosting APIs as charity) where you cannot host any ad or piggy-back an ad content on API result payload. And it doesn't make any sense to do too.
2. Most visitors are perfectly using Ad-blockers on their browsers
3. If the visitors are uploading large volume files/data like video contents. Naturally this will make the hosting cost overtake the revenue earned by the visitors page views/clicks.
What are the other things that might affect the revenue in negative, despite having a good site popularity?
requesting the service of your wisdom!

That's impossible to answer without concrete numbers. Without knowing what the hosting cost is, or what ad payment deals are in place, we would just be guessing.

Hosting cost should be around $150 at the moment.
Ad Payment deals - Google Ads. (I'm not sure what exactly they have opted for in Google Ads, there could be some sub classifications)
Just with Google Ads, one should be able to meet up their demands ? as popularity & visitor counts grow?
OR, these ads based sites actually run in loss first, before they exactly figure out a proper paid-service model?

The value of ads; there's an overcapacity to show them and distribution is dirt-cheap.

And wondering what to do.
On their forum a woman was complaining about being harassed.
I replied "Poor you, I hope you could have some good games". For some unfathomable reason that attracted many downvotes and also a suspension for harassment. At least it's what the email I received seemed to imply.
All that nonsensical baloney just happened, I am very upset (no answer from their customer support yet, to appeal that non sense).
Now I feel like stop playing Blizzard game, fully boycott them from now and forever. I usually do that kind of things. Thinking about it it all seems pointless, they will never know. On the other hand they are not really trying to know. Also mistake happens.
Btw if I seem to overact it's because a few other people have already complained they have received ban for seemingly no good reason and have complained on the forum. Looks like a money grabbing affair disguised as "polishing the community", by forcing regular (addicted) player to buy new accounts. Not gonna happen, nor buy any lootboxes no more.
[EDIT] I am starting to wonder if their forum moderator are some forms of "Artificial Intelligence", if you get my meaning.
[EDIT2] after having taken my complaint to Reddit, in what was my first ever participation to Reddit (whether read or, in that case, write) I discovered that, in "American language", I was super offensive. Go figure!

You never know where the company will draw (or move without notice) the line between acceptable snark and unacceptable levels of being a jerk.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I'm an old style gamer: I game. The only times I used the forums where
1) To search if a malfunction was experienced by other users other than me and if there was a fix;
2) To check when the release dates of Skyrim and Fallout 4 would be published.
Also, I don't play any Blizzard game as they just don't meet my tastes. Bethesda, on the other hand...

Just last night I shot at some bandits. One saw it coming and took an arrow in the eye. The others were hit in various places and never knew what hit them. One even had an arrow in the knee, but not even he got up again and walked away to become a guard.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
