Thank you very much.  Currently just one person works on gpaint (me) so the
development is very slow.  But you add a good set of desirable features that
I would add to the TO DO list...

Thanks very much!

hi!<br>
<br>
since i were a very frequent user of Deluxe Paint at early 90s (AmigaOS Version), i were curious to know Gpaint. &nbsp; Gpaint is indeed a good tool, but missing lots of very useful features, which i&#39;d like to suggest, at least to be part of the Gpaint TODO document:<br>

<br>
1- editable palette (Deluxe Paint 1.0 Amiga version has this)<br>
2- pattern palette, a simple one, just like MacPaint from late 80&#39;s<br>
3- &#39;~/.gpaint/&#39; folder having pattern and palette folders, which we can have our own custom ones available - patterns as pictures, palettes as x11 rgb-like used on Gimp and Inkscape<br>
4- custom picture size (different of 640x480)<br>
5- connectivity to imagemagick, allowing users to create/share their own effects as plugins<br>
6- line width larger than 9<br>
7- mirror, resize, brush, grid, zoom (splitted window), etc. just like from Deluxe Paint<br>
8- animation (Deluxe Paint 4.0 for Amiga has this) - this can work on a picture sequence, like used on CinePaint, and Gpaint could also generate animated .gif and .mng pictures (even video files, with help from ffmpeg)<br>

9- pictures in indexed mode as option beyond rgb mode, which palette edition would affect directly on the picture - for helping, some options for colour reduction would be welcome (like Deluxe Paint has)<br>
10- shift key pressed for creating circles instead of ellipses, and squares instead of rectangles<br>
<br>
i think they are all for now!<br>
<br>
thanks and best wishes,<br>
