[comp.sys.mac] Pixelpaint

childs@cit-vax.Caltech.Edu (David W. Childs) (10/19/88)

Hi,
I won a copy of Pixel Paint at Siggraph this year.
Pixel Paint is a paint program for Mac II's and
sells for about $495.  I have an Amiga and would
like to trade Pixel Paint for some Amiga equipment/software
or maybe just sell to someone for a good price.  Make
me an offer, and you might get it cheap.  It is an
unopenned package - still shrink wrapped.
Thanks.
Sorry comp.graphics if this is the wrong place, but I
thought someone who reads this might not read comp.sys.mac.

For those that were interested in Pixel Paint,  I can't reach
all of you by mail.  Please send me your phone numbers and
best time to call.  If you havn't heard back from me, it's
because my mailer choked on my reply.

I just received the newest version of PixelPaint (version 2.0).  I was
hoping that the manual might specify what the format of a PixelPaint
document might look like.  Does anyone have a specification of the
version 2.0 format?  Even the old version 1.0 format might be informative.

The new version can import/export the following formats:

	PixelPaint
	PICT and PICT2
	TIFF
	StartupScreen
	MacPaint
	EPSF
	Stationary Pad (a file format for PixelPaint preferences)

So, I assume that PixelPaint can perform a conversion between any of
these formats.  However, I would still like a specification of
PixelPaint version 2.0 format - is SuperMac listening???

Herb,

Sorry for taking so long to reply...PORTAL has some problems.

I'd suggest getting in contact with Brian McDonnell, Graphics Product Manager
for SuperMac Software at the general number of (408) 245-2202.  Brian used 
to have a Usenet address (similar to mine, just replace my name), but unknown
if he is still using it.

Short of that you can call our SuperMac BBS (408-773-4500) and download some
source code for the PixelPaint Viewer (it's in Pascal).

The main difference between Pixelpaint and Pixelpaint Pro is the color
capabilities.  Pixelpaint, I believe, will adequately use an 8bit color
card, whereas Pixelpaint Pro will use a 24 bit color card, thus enhanceing 
your color capabilities.
