Version 0.58 now released (sorry about the writing quality as ever!):

v 0.58 - 11th January 2010
--------------------------

+ Fixed bug where loading BMP / PNG images with pixels of value 255 were treated as transparant when using brush tools
+ Made sliders taller and the slider arrow a little bigger
+ Simplified and improved method of increasing or decreasing slider by 1
+ Reorganised effect options, splitting right mouse button modes (paint, erase or eyedropper) into a separate option panel which can be accessed by right clicking on the effects icon
+ Increased the dither patterns to 7
+ Added Erase paint mode as an effect tool as well as a right mouse button paint mode option and usable with a keyboard shortcut (shift is default). Erase mode removes colour under pixel when mouse button is first pressed, i.e. when over white you can erase white pixels with the brush, WITHOUT erasing other colours.
+ Added Stencil options: Stencil on/off, edit stencil (which lets you turn stencilled colour on/off by clicking in the palette area of the usere interface), invert stencil and erase stencil. Stencils are automatically saved and loaded in DPX files as well as in the normal workspace
+ Added 'Remove unused colours in palette' icon functionality in Palette Options. Left clicking on the icon replaces any unused palette entries with pure black. Right clicking on the icon replaces any unused palette entries with the colour in the current right mouse button pen
+ Visual update for the user interface: Slight subtle shading of background panels, now icons are multi-coloured and feature more shading. Icons lose subtle rounded corners on edges. Panels also lose rounded colours and feature top and bottom highlights. Icon highlights are square, and the main font is a little squarer too. Standard sliders gain shading and a more metalic looking slider arrow. The overall effect is for a user interface look which is not so flat as before, with slightly 'harder' looking elements (due to the removal of softening subtle curves)

Maybe in the future.

Ohhh! 

v 0.57 - 7th November 2010
---------------------------------------

+ Added wireframe (single pixel line) grid option
+ Fixed bug where freehand drawing tools could be being affected by fit to grid option (if snap to grid was on) by mistake
+ Fixed bug where the current image number being worked on would be reset to 0 (the first image) when restarting the program again
+ Colours are now updated properly when a colour in the palette is copied over another by dragging in the palette
+ Loading true colour images didn't actually result in proper error check in release version and caused crashes, now fixed
+ True colour images are now loaded as 256 colour images IF there are 256 colours or less in the image
+ Workspace (expect current image) is now saved when loading new image
+ Thumbnails are now drawn in their own image palette, instead of the current palette in use
+ D-Pixel logo will now disappear when a key is pressed as well as if the mouse is moved

New release.. I'll be moving house over the next few weeks, so may not be around much.

v 0.55 - 23rd October 2010
---------------------------------------

+ Fixed error with loading PNG files with non-even width sizes
+ Fixed small error in creating thumbnail errors where colour 0 was used for some parts of the background instead of solid black
+ Added support for palettes attached to images (internally)
+ Added support for multiple images (internally)
+ Added check for loading images with a colour depth greater than 8-bit and aborting rather than crashing
+ Now saves workspace before saving any image in case of a crash
+ Tightened up icon highlighting when over icon text to stop multiple icons being selected at once
+ Added user brush panel of 9 user brush entries (right click on current user brush icon to select which position to use)
+ All 9 user brush entries are now saved and loaded automatically with the workspace
+ Fixed bug with freehand and rectangle copy / cut
+ Increased time returned to OS (again!)
+ Fixed bug where icons could be selected by accident whilst drawing
