As posted on the A-EON Facebook page.
Earlier this year we commissioned Andy Broad to complete the first update to Personal Paint for many years. He did an excellent job which resulted in a new 68k version Personal Paint 7.2 which Cloanto bundled with its latest Amiga Forever release.
As part of the agreement with Andy, he also worked on a major upgrade of Personal Paint for both the Classic AmigaOS and a native PPC version for AmigaOS 4.1. These are now available to purchase through AMIstore.
The Personal Paint 7.3 Classic versions has the following features:-
● Works with the Classic AmigaOS and AmigaOS4.1 and and emulation under WinUAE and Amiga Forever
● Totally integrated with the AmigaOS Workbench
● Supports AmigaOS screen dragging
● Smoother interaction with the OS4 screen dragging system
● True colour animation frame thumbs in the StoryBoard window
● High resolution gadget imagery and thin borders style GUI option for a more modern look
● 9 new built in brush shapes
● 100 new Custom Brushes
● Pressure sensitive drawing
● Dithered transparency
● New Airbrush Linemode
● Extended paint functionality with image processing tool
Note: The native PPC version has similar features.
Our acquisition of the rights to Personal Paint means that we will continue with its ongoing development in the future. Also we will continue to make historical version of Personal Paint available for free download and that includes the version of PPaint that was removed from Aminet.
