Hello everyone! my dream has been to create a working, saving, loading, many options paint program.
I have seen many peopls where you use the mouse to draw and the pieces get all spread out. But i feel
like this one isnt like all of those paint programs out there.
I have created exactly six!
paint programs so far is this is my best.

More information:

DLL's used:
BlueGui V2.0

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Help:
I have recieved help from MANY people on the forums, thanks to all of you out there!
And a special thanks to InaM for his FloodFill and connecting the boxes code.

Instructions:
Use the navigation bar at the top of the screen to get to:

The color picker
To change brush size
To save/load (only saving and loading jpg's at the moment)
and more!

Enjoy!

(Download below)

PS: Please post your artwork here, i would like to see what people can do with my application.

There is no "everyone" you ungratefull sob. There's me giving constructive critisizm.

beats me,I dont use this thing. but if you want to do this right,id get in an option to change background and import other file extensions.

And as for your smartass comment,if the user wants a default color for his background on start up? he's going to want that option. My Flash editor gives me that option,dolt.

Hi. Ive just downloaded it, and I must say that I hate it. No, just kidding. Its nice, but not THAT good. There are somethings you can work on a little. For example, try to make it more smoth, and finnish the spray tool to the next version. An example is that you can make so when you want to change the size (not the "+" or "-" keys this time), you hold down the right mouse button and move the mose up or down to increase/decrease the thickness of the brush or choose colour if you prefer (just a suggestion). And there are some buggs. For example, if you press "cancel"/"close" (I live in Sweden so on my it says "Avbryt") when your in the loadning sceen you close the program. And click on one if the options (dont select anything in the options that come up) at the top of the screen, and then click in the painting area, a line will appear from the top of the program screen to the point where you clicked. But its nice, just try to evolve it a little and try to fix the buggs. And by the way, post the updates in the right board.

One thing more. Whats the "eye dropper"?

I downladed it, and Had some problems with the control, but I would highly suggst making the "drawing space" white, it is very diffifcult to see the currsor(especially, when it's black). I also would suggest making toolbars, to change from tool to tool faster, and if at all possible, a color picker toolbar too.(like in paint)

Keep up the good work! (cause I can't even get graphics in my programs!!)

I thought more of Program Announcement, since it was posted as a finnished program, but I might be wrong.
