Paint Sucks

Paint MS….

MS Paint is definitely one of the worst graphics programs ever created. I prefer the GM image editor over it. It sucks! Where's that promo on youtube of it? I can't find it.

Refresh

Notice my new look? MS Paint had nothing to do with it. Well, I did trace the sign, but that doesn't count. Flash is one of the best graphics programs I have, and creating great effects is really easy and quick. It took me about ten minutes to make the avatar and banner.

Armored Offense

The AI could still use some work since they tend to leave the room, but you get the point when you are being hammered with flaming missiles. I currently have no built-in particle effects! I aim to have all or mostly all object based particles. I can get better effects with that rather than coding them. Now I am working on buildings and the ally side of it.

Here's the game that mine looks closest to:

Maybe I can have a demo in the next blog.

Still Sickly

Yeah, I've been out of school since last last Friday, the 12th. I have Pneumonia. I have gotten pumped with all kinds of nasty looking medicines through razor sharp metal things. It hurts! I'm not going tomorrow, either <_<

Flash sucks ass for pixeling; as does photoshop…And GIMP is really close to photoshop.

I'd say go with graphics gale. Layers, frames, onion skinning, colourizing, and lots more fun stuff.

GIMP > All.

Photoshop… is $650 and I don't have it.

MSPaint can only undo 3 times.

GIMP may have the same quality as most, but it definitely has more quantity, which also has quality.

Its free actually…

I haven't tried out Gimp yet, but I will, and Graphics Gale, that sounds awesome.

BTW, my Photoshop Elements 2 can pixel good. I'm going to get CS2 pretty soon.

I use gimp and paint. Paint for the outline and Gimp for the rest. Works fine with me. (I can't work with paths in Gimp)

Paint.NET is a bit hard to use. But allright to

You are insane.

I prefer it, but I'd rather use Photoshop or Flash than that <_<

I agree with nobody. Paint is the best free pixelling program next to GraphicsGale.

It's rock stable, works, does the job, hell, IT JUST WORKS. apple, eat your fucking heart out.
