For painting in 2 to 64 colors, I think its safe to say that nothing is better than Deluxe Paint III. For HAM painting, I prefer Digi-Paint 3 but it is not nearly as powerful as DP III (IMHO). But if you really want to work with something nice, check out the paint program that comes with DCTV. It has the feel of a professional video paintbox like the Quantel and should make conventional (non-computer) artists feel more at home. It is one of the first of the 24bit paint programs, which we should be seeing a flood of in the near future. %~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~% % ` ' Mark Thompson % % --==* RADIANT *==-- mark@westford.ccur.com % % ' Image ` ...!{decvax,uunet}!masscomp!mark % % Productions (508)392-2480 (603)424-1829 % % % ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
