D-Pixel (my paint program)
happymonster:
Hello all,
I've been working on my paint program D-Pixel (formely Pixe) and I think it's about ready to be a bit more widely available now. D-Pixel is a low colour (upto 256 colour) paint program which is inspired by older classic paint programs such as DPaint and Personal Paint, but combined with some of my own new ideas and an interface similar to that used by smartphones.

This is still a Work In Progress version and so there are bound to be some bugs, but I think it's now usable.. I'd be really pleased if someone uses this to do the gfx for their game. :)

Panning is problematic on my desktop (seems fine with trackpad on my netbook) as it go through periods where it's constantly getting stuck (stops a couple pixels in but if I keep pushing the mouse it'll move a couple more pixels), then periods were it seems to work fine. No similar problems with painting though.
It bugs me that I can't select a tool option by clicking on it's label.
I love the persistent workspace.
Overall very nice.

Hmm.. do you mean panning with the mouse (middle button down) sticks? That's odd how it doesn't do that with the trackpad or with drawing.. ???
Clicking on the icon text to highlight is a good idea! :)
I will look at a Mac version in the future. ;)
I'll do a bit more work on D-Pixel this weekend.
