I bought UltraPaint based on experience with Canvas. UP has a
respectable subset of the features of Canvas 2, and a cleaner
interface (IMHO). I use it mostly for simple illustration work a User
Group newsletter that I edit, and for playing around. I am very
pleased with the program.
I am not very pleased with the manual. It is incomplete, occasionally
incorrect, filled with typographical errors (from a company that sells
a spelling checker!), and to top it off, it came as a several bunches
of shrink wrapped pages and instructions on how to assemble them into
a manual! Nice slip cover 'though...
I ran UP on an SE under 6.0.7 MultiFinder in a 1.5Meg partiton and the
performance was quite acceptable. I just upgraded to System 7,
performance seems unchanged except that I needed to reduce the size of
the partition due to the vast increase in System size.
