Oh im sorry, thats what you meant, yes. Ppaint lacks that :/
But dya really need that feature? Hmm for shading and stuff I reckon..
Id say a combination of ppaint (the free one) and an old version of
photogenics would do the trick in that case.

Ow I like it, but Ive seen 4.0 and I prefer v2 :/

Dont forget candypro in that case :)

Exactly, what a mess, I do a lot of raytracing for demos and stuff, and
having lightwave pictures in 24bit is alright, but scaling it down to 8bit
can be really frustrating :/

They will, at leastif arteffect uses warpup.
