Basically, you will never call Paint(), but always Draw().
Paint() just paints on the screen the object involved and is called by
many methods internally.
Draw() will just append the object to the list of objects attached to
the pad. The pad's Update() method will call all the Paint() methods of
all the attached objects.

Well, that's what I understood. Rene, correct me if I'm wrong.
