fxPAINT V2.0 demogalleries
« on: November 29, 2002, 09:38:44 AM »
Due to numerous requests, IOSPIRIT has decided to put online two demogalleries created with fxPAINT 2.0. The first gallery uses the dropshadow-skin and slideshow- and fxCARD-options were activated. A second gallery has been created without the use of skins. We hope you enjoy the two demos!

It looks like there's a little problem with the dropshadow effect. The upper
right-hand corner has an inconsistency. Is this a fault of the program, or
just an oversight in posting the pics?

Regardless, FXPaint looks to be pretty slick.
I sold my Amiga for a small fortune, but a part of my soul went with it.

Depending on whether you use AWeb or not this might be a widely known bug of it. AWeb can't handle background graphics properly .. just resize the window and see them move.

The skins work fine with IBrowse, Voyager, Mozilla, MSIE and probably many others, though.

I'm impressed but confused...

What do the words "picture rotated with one click" actually refer to.

Does the program grab a camera and run back to the original object, run around the corner and take a second picture for you????

How else can detail NOT IN THE ORIGINAL PICTURE be exposed by "rotating"

Not being cynical, but please explain effects used better please. I am actually interested and fxPaint is on my "to purchase" list when I get my AmigaOne...

Well, that question is an easy one :)

If you take a picture with your camera, it is normally wider than it is high. But if you want to photograph a tall object, you'll normally "rotate" the camera. This will - after direct read in from the camera - result in a "rotated" image. If you don't want your page visitors to move their head by +/-90°, the pictures should be rotated beforehand. This is where this function kicks in. You just click on the thumbnail showing the right rotation angle - that's all. Normally you would have to sort out these pictures, manually load them, find the right angle, rotate them, save them back and read them back into your image catalogisation software. fxPAINT's fxALBUM saves you this work - you just do a single click here :)

And with fxPAINT 2.0 being on your purchase list .. why not order and use it now and even save some euro. If it shouldn't run out-of-the box under AmigaOS 4, you'll be able to freely download an update making it run there. It already runs perfectly under Pegasos/MOS, btw.

Best regards,

@Felix

Thank you for thaking the time to answer my question.

Yes the answer was simple and obviose (after you explained it).

As for purchasing now....

I would love to except I do not own an Amiga yet (My AmigaOne is ordered and I am awaiting delivery).

My only experience with Amiga is via WinUAE and on my old PC it is neither fast enough nor stable enough for me to bother purchasing software for (Yet).

This situation will change soon.

Depending on how fast/stable the UAE is on the Linux AmigaOne I may begin purchasing software ahead of the OS4 release.

You have my sypathies at the moment as I supect a lot of normal purchases are being defered until the AmigaOne/OS4 release.

 Hang in there and you should see a boost in sales soon ;-)

Regards
Darren

I'm in the same boat as you Darren. Currently using WinUAE, while hanging out for my XE to be delivered and OS4.0 released.

fxPAINT and IBrowse 2.3 are currently on top of my "to-buy" list.

Felix, are there any plans for fxSCAN to support HP USB scanners like the ScanJet 3200?

Cheers,
Fotios.
