Wanted good picture editor

mike4466 · 25 May 2010, 14:02

Anybody got a good picture editor which will load and save other formats as well as .iff and the file itself preferred in adf or dms format.

I have got deluxe paint 1-4 which only does so much.

killergorilla · 25 May 2010, 14:07

PPaint is my favourite.

mike4466 · 25 May 2010, 14:19

Is ppaint available in adf or dms format

Leffmann · 25 May 2010, 15:37

There is a PPaint LHA archive on the Aminet. The complete install is 7 or so MB, but you could probably strip it to fit on a single disk.

mike4466 · 25 May 2010, 16:10

Well all i want is just the picture editor bit,im not too bothered about the other features.
As long it will load,save & edit IFF, GIF, PNG, PCX, JPEG, BMP, TIM.

TIM is probably going to be difficult, and you may have to convert them on the peecee.

killergorilla · 25 May 2010, 17:54

In which case, you may as well just convert them all

mike4466 · 25 May 2010, 18:19

So is anybody up to the task of fitting it to one disk.

killergorilla · 26 May 2010, 01:00

Why do you need it on a disk?

Not really if there's a TIM datatype. PPaint can read whatever you can get a datatype for. That's the great part of PPaint.

I use DPaint for my work but PPaint for converting to/from modern formats

HOwever does PPaint run in KS1.3? I Don't think so.

mike4466 · 26 May 2010, 09:02

I want ppaint to run on winuae and i have all the kickstarts from 1.1 to 3.1 so it should be possible to convert the program over several disks or more in adf or dms,so im not too fussy.

killergorilla · 26 May 2010, 09:29

If you are using winuae why bother using an adf, you might as well use it properly with a hard drive.

Were you planning on saving all the images to floppy too?

TCD · 26 May 2010, 09:38

Oh yes, the pain of setting up the first Amiga HD

DO IT mike4466! I know you can

For starters : http://guide.abime.net/home3.htm

It makes no sense to do it from floppies. No really, none

TCD · 26 May 2010, 10:53

Still you need a WB (disk) to load it.

mike4466 · 26 May 2010, 16:12

No problem and I know this stuff

Luckily I found some neat preconfigured frontends now that save a lot of the tedious work

Good luck that you get those 50,000 games to work

mike4466 · 27 May 2010, 15:53

Thanks for your help TCD

i will off course be coming back to eab regular as there will be more games being rediscovered and fixed etc.
