New Paint Program for Amiga - Ideas - Gui - etc

[invent]

Hi Everyone,

Here is "Shine" (working title) for a new paint program for Amiga.

The idea of this thread is to create interest and ideas in developing an Amiga only Paint program that not only updates our favourite programs such as Dpaint and Brilliance but brings along lots of new and unique ideas.

So if you have a list of what you want in an Art program, please list them here.

Thanks,
Kev

Hi Colani1200

Its only a concept, but I thought if we get enough ideas/concepts maybe someone would eventually code it

@Steril707/Mike, im open to any platform but ideally Amiga OS5.

Hi Cammy, thanks, im from Brisbane Your right about customising the interface and just as important shortcuts, im often wanting to hit the "." to get my brush back to 1 pixel sizing in photoshop.

Brilliance is possibly one of my fav Amiga Art apps. Not a day goes by that I wish I could open up that app. and poke more pixels.  

Hi Rednova, certainly valid idea, resolution/colour options.

Choosing the amount of colours would be as easy as moving the slider to the amount of colours you want, eg 8,16,258,1024,16m. Designing games sprites I often export as optimised png files, some might be reduced to say 64 colours without loosing any quality but the advantage is file size reduction.  


As I only use Photoshop at the moment for work/home. There are still alot of tools I miss such as the magnify tool, or a lock to grid / spray brush.
