I unfortunatly agree with most of whats been said already. The most you`d get out of EA is a small chuckle. They won`t even think about going anywhere near a new version of DPaint. I`d like a a new "from scratch" version of DPaint, but that will have to be made and sold by siomebody else and be called something else. Lets face it, many Amiga paint packages share many features with it anyway. TVPaint is like a much more modern versison of it, except with no animation. I`ve been designing (roughly and slowly) an all powerful paint/animation package, now and then. I`d really like something new to scribble on. Lets hope that somebody creates something. It won`t be a new DPaint though.

Free? Naaah. If I was to create an incredibly powerful 2D animation/paint package I`d want some sort of reward for it. Not everything can be free. If it were a simple recreation of DPaint then maybe yeah, but something new, would have to be sold rather than given away. Yes theres stuff like Perfect paint, but PfP isn`t gooed enough to be called an all powerful application. Yes I use it (rarely), but it doesn`t and won`t do everything I want. Saying that none of the other stuff I have does everything eiter, but at least they do more for me, that PfP does. Free is good for the user, but not for the developer, in the short term. In the long term its bad for the user too.
