Theres so many, but there are only a few modern (more or less) packages with that polished feel. We need more! Heres my list in no real order.

GoldED
TVPaint
Candyfactory
DOpus MII
AmIRC

I`d have put DPaint 5 n Lightwave a while back but I rarely use either now (unless you count LW7.5 on the PC).

I`d like to put ImageFX. Its a great bit of software, but its never been the best on my system. I may add it when I get an upgrade from 4 to 4.5 and get it running on my AmigaOne.

I`d also like to add FXPaint, but haven`t used it enough to make full judgement yet. Seems very good though.

AmIRC
ELAN Performer  (essential for VJ's and DJ's)
ScalaMM300 (you don't know Amiga till you master this)
Brilliance 2.0
PPaint
VideoToaster
DiskMaster II
AmigAIM (AOL Instant Messenger for Amiga)
YAM
DSS8+

@Rebel-CD32
Personal Paint is the best paint program I've ever used on any platform


Thats because youhavent tried Brilliance!  although it does not have the ability to apply special FX, it is really fast ( I have PPaint also, which I think is better than Deluxe Paint)
CD32 is actually the best Amiga ever made by Commodore!...

@AmigaFreak

I love Say to.

You should try these other Speech programs for Amiga:

Announce
Speak2Sample
Talk
Narrator Test

also scripts for AmIRC  that lets AmIRC talk while you chat with friends online and reads back what they wrote

AmIRSAY.amirx
NARRATOR.amirx

You can also make ScalaMM300 Talk in presentations or in credit tiles your making and lots o other uses like speaking while playing music.

Speak2Sample (converts the speach to an IFF or WAV file)
Ives used it to burn the name of a track on a Music CD before the track starts.....for instance the Amiga saying:  Track 1....Track 2.....Track 3 etc
CD32 is actually the best Amiga ever made by Commodore!...

Hey, on the subject of "Say", are there any replacements that use more formants and stuff? MacOS 7.5.3 had this speech tool that was really cool (I messed with it under shape shifter), it basically vocoded a sample or something to create lots of speech variations.

Given that it ran fine under mac emulation, I expect a native equivalent is possible :-)

That would be a cool musical toy :-D

My top favorites that I miss:

10. MiamiDX
09. the XAD system
08. All ARexx Ports 8-)
07. ImageFX
06. IconEdit
05. Opus Magellan
04. YAM

I can't wait to get a real Amiga working again... complete with 24/32bit screens.  UAE just doesn't cut it for some reason.

I love the modern age world of this middle age crises America... all these SUVs driving around like there\\\'s gas to spare and then some.
