Deluxe Paint Rocks! The only thing even compares to it on the PC side is the PC version of Deluxe Paint which isn't as fully devleloped as the Amiga version and only works reliably in MS-DOS. This is the one Amiga application I just keep coming back to, it has really unique geometric drawing functions and I use it to design Mandalas these days. Brillance is good but Deluxe Paint is just the definitive Amiga graphics application: It was there from the beginning and evolved with the Amiga. It shows the the graphics and animation capabilities of the Amiga in one package better than any other Amiga graphics program whether it is an OCS A1000 or  an AGA A4000/A1200. And Deluxe PaintV is even better than Deluxe PaintIV and with Cybergrafix, will work in VGA, SVGA, and XGA modes and will even load 24 bit images--very slow, yes, and not documented, but it will do it.


A2500 owned since 1993 with A2630/DKB 2632, DKB Megachip, GVP EGS Spectrum, A2320 and GVP HC+8 on the inside and a DCTV on the outside. A4000D with CSPPC, Cybervision 64 and a Flicker Magic flicker fixer. A4000T Toaster Flyer & CSMKII. All systems completly retro and classic and mostly used to do geometic art as in my avatar.

Yeah, Mandalas, with the Symmetry tool. This one I did a few years ago. I drew it with Deluxe Paint in WinUae and then processed it with a couple of Photoshop filters. I didn't think of it as a mandala at the time but these days, designing mandalas is the conscious intent.
