So, what are we using to make pics these days?

Howdy, everyone!

Let's say I am in a mood for getting my hands dirty with some pixels and I dont have anything handy to do so (my C64 is far, faaaar away from me in some forgotten, dusty closet)...

The question is, what tools are available out there for such suckerz as me? Ideally running on Mac OS X, but if not possible, could be for Windows 8 as well. If there's something that would work under some emulator, and could handle a mouse in sane way, that could do the job as well.

Oh, and so that the question wouldnt be too easy to answer, I'd love to be able to try out these new NUFLI (and other) wonders - but hey, HIRES/FLI should suffice ;)

Cheers, R.

I still like to use AmicaPaint 1.8, but VICE 2.2 is the last official release version that has a proper mouse emulation under Win.

please dont encourage using ancient VICE versions because of silly reasons like that - use the nightly build instead.

Right - like the one that gives you a "device not present" when disabling true drive emulation (2.4.20)?

Real pixel artists use graph paper and type in data statements!

What is this "type" you speak of? I enter my data statements in binary with a row of electrical on/off-switches.
