Life before the selection tool!

Brick Nash · 29 May 2016, 14:06

I just loaded up DPAINT IV after not using it for at least 22 years to try my hand at some old school graphics.

Holy shit, how did people survive without a selection tool back then?

I don't remember it being this fiddly back in the early 90's when I used to make my own sprite graphics and animations but it's great fun nonetheless.

I guess I'm so used to Paint Shop Pro now.

It's amazing the things we take for granted these days!

What do you mean? Press 'b' and select all you want.

And there is even a spare page where you can store different versions during experimentation.

The select (pick up brush) tool was already there in DPaint 1 :-D
