Back in the good old BeOS days, ArtPaint was one of my favourite programs, seeing a lot of use, but it sort of languished in Haiku. The version I had was from 2008 (not realizing work was being done on it) and had so many lacks and bugs it was essentially useless.
I recently pulled the latest from HaikuDepot and found that it was actually becoming usable, though with still a few problems. I’ve bashed on a few of these, and I think it’s now pretty close to its BeOS glory days. And it’s likely that some GASoC work will be done.
So now might be a good time to see how it looks to others, and where it could still be improved.
I’ve put my latest update at http://GoodeveCA.net/ArtPaint (in both hpkg and zip). The source archhive at https://github.com/HaikuArchives/ArtPaint should match that when I get a PR accepted. Comment either here or at https://github.com/HaikuArchives/ArtPaint/issues
BTW, I noticed in another thread that Brunobastardi complained that no Haiku graphics program handled “large” images. How large is large? I have no problem with say 12 MP images from my camera, and I was able to nearly double that – though I hit a “memory” limit above that.
