New PC paintprogram for c64

Some of you might already know this, but i've been working on a paintprogram of my own for some time now.

It's based on Paint.Net (http://www.eecs.wsu.edu/paint.net/ (check it out, it's great (and free!))), so it has layer functionality, effects, all default tools, antialiasing, unlimited history and more fancy stuff you'll only find in that program and photoshop but my adaptation also has filters to convert to c64 formats (FLI, koala and single color bitmap but also the option to convert to sprites and more).
On top of that you can paint and draw in single and multicolour mode with all 16 c64 colours and a transparent colour.

Here's a screenshot of what it currently looks like and shows some of the features:

It currently doesn't export anything, because i'm not quite sure how to implement that yet, so any suggestions are welcome :)

For the moment i'd like to get some feedback and in about a month (I have to put together a document first on how to use it) I'll be putting out a first alpha version which people can test (this requires windows 2000/server 2003/XP and the .Net framework 1.1)

Cheers,

Mirage/Focus

ninja :=) raydomat had a big problem - as a paintprogram it sucked :=P another mistake was to restrict it to the screen area without borders, especially for demos it would be much more useful to be able to edit/convert sprites to put in the borders aswell.

She prefers OS X (my missus has a mac), but she has a winwoes box cos most of her games are winwoes only. She can login by herself onto the win pc and the mac. She can start firefox and select the bookmark she wants.

She's 4 by the way. Cant read yet :)

The rest of the network is linux boxen.

Great improvements!

It´s becoming very tempting to try it out oneday.
My ancient mindset -C64 tools for C64 graphics- starts to crumble.. ;)

And ofcoz I don´t mind..
Thank you for the free publicity!! 8D

Does it show the `UFLI-blocks 8x2´ when painting?
For me it is inevitable to work with that..

Anyway,I don´t have it.. ;)

you don't have the 8x2 blocks marked on the grid, but there is an 8x8 grid, so it's easy to work out your 8x2 from there (is this what you mean?).

There was a download link here last night, I hadn't realised it had been removed...
