Molyneux | Internet: andrem@pyramid.com | >| Pyramid Technology Corporation | | >| San Jose, California | Packet: ka7wvv@n0ary.#nocal.ca.usa.na | >+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ I rented this program a while back for a week. It seemed to me that stuff like drawing is a pain because it tries to dither your lines and I couldn't see how to turn that off. The result are lines which aren't solid, crisp, and black while only being x bits wide. Kind of a pain since I was trying to touch up a line diagram with no color. Other than that, it seemed really neat and powerful. I might still buy it and use it in conjunction with my other cheapo color prog. Sombody explain to me why ColorIt and Expert Color Paint look like the same program. I was very surprised to see that myself. Todd Beaubien tbeaubie@ringer.cs.utsa.edu UT at San Antonio
