Hey, this sounds interesting, very very! interesting actually, but have you done anything with it?

Could you share it with us? I´m really curious. :)

In a scale of 1 to 10 with Painter at 9, how would you rate this app ?

about a 1.5

its just a doodle sketchpad made to be used with TabletXP on Tablet PC's......it really has no features to it.....its basically MSPaint with very very very basic tablet support.........not even pressure sensitive and the eraser end isnt programmed.

not very impressive......ill keep waiting for the Studio PLE

Damn.

I keep looking out for alternatives to Photoshop (could never get past the fact that the end result always looks so...plastic).

The ideal wiould be a Painter lookalike, but with the sheer power of Photoshop, if only such a program existed...

About a 6, just misses the higher end stuff like painter/photoshop
more like the notepad of paint/sketch programs :)

The interface is pretty cute since it uses a similar method as maya
does for accessing the buttons.

not even pressure sensitive

that works here.


cheers!

Ill give it a two, just because of the markers, some pressure sensitivity, and the zoom tool is kind of neat.


But it is just another (ugly) WindowsXP integration.
Maybe the Pro version has better features, but I'll
stick with Painter Classic.

This isn't a full painting program its aimed at preproduction, and quickly coming up with different ideas...

This is a really awsome program at what it does, even if you don't have a tablet PC. Its meant to be lite and I use it with Maya to previsualise on top of my models...hence I love the screen shot feature.
